FIRE crews continue to battle a large wildfire in Fauldhouse equivalent to more than five football pitches in size.
Emergency services were first called to the blaze shortly before 11.45am on Saturday in a forest off the B7010 near Fauldhouse in West Lothian.
It comes as the Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) issued an extreme warning for wildfires across mainland Scotland, which is in place until Monday.
As of 1.45pm on Sunday, the same number of appliances remain at the scene.
The blaze is 200 x 200 metres, equivalent to the size of around five-and-a-half football pitches.
Local residents have been urged to keep windows and doors closed and to avoid the area.
An SFRS spokesperson said: "We were alerted at 11.43am on Saturday, 10 May to reports of a large outdoor fire affecting a remote area of forest near Fauldhouse.
"Operations Control currently has nine appliances at the scene, as well as a high volume pump, all terrain vehicle and a water bowser.
