The cause of a massive woodland blaze is still a mystery as firefighters start a second day of action at the site.
Over 1,000 square feet of woodland was affected at Formby Pinewoods when the fire broke out on Easter Monday (April 22).
Crews were delayed getting to the site because of heavy Bank Holiday traffic in the area around 3pm.
Dramatic images and video footage taken yesterday showed smoke billowing off the charred ground and surrounding trees.
This morning fire crews were back at the site to 'dampen down' any hot spots at the fire site.

Merseyside Fire and Rescue confirmed that fire crews will be visiting the site throughout the day as a precaution.
A spokesperson for Merseyside Fire and Rescue said the cause of the large blaze was "not yet known"

They added: "Crews have carried out hot spotting and damping down this morning. They will be going back again later this morning to survey the site and carry out any further hot spotting that is required.
"Crews are continuing to work with National Trust Rangers."
