Residents of the highland village Nethy Bridge have been allowed to return home after a large wildfire in the Cairngorms National Park was no longer deemed to be an “immediate threat”. Police Scotland said the fire is no longer being considered a major incident after work to contain it reduced the risk to nearby communities. On Saturday night, Superintendent Judy Hill, of Police Scotland, said there is “no longer the immediate threat which prompted the evacuation of properties in Nethy Bridge.” “With residents in Nethy Bridge now able to return to their homes, Police Scotland have lifted the Major Incident declaration. Sandy McCook, chairman of the Nethy Bridge and Vicinity Community Council, said residents of the Cairngorms village could see large plumes of smoke from the wildfire on Friday before they were evacuated.
