Emergency Services were called out at around 9pm to approximately 35 metres of greenery hedgerow alight.
Firefighters were working for an hour to extinguish the blaze.
In a post on social media, the fire and rescue service say the Island is 'tinder dry' at the moment, and as a result - are asking people to be vigilant.
