A passing local woman was fearing for a man’s seasonal business on December 12, when she saw a huge blaze burning at the spot he sells his Christmas trees.Kent Fire and Rescue said that trees were indeed engulfed by the fire, which started in a shed. But Billy Roberts, or “Tree Man Bill”, said that luckily, his stock was not harmed and everyone was safe.The footage here was recorded in Saint Margaret’s at Cliffe, outside Dover, by Gemma Green. Green told Storyful that the fire had “fully taken hold” and the flames were “out of control” by the time she passed by. She told Kent Online she was worried Roberts’s trees might have gone up in flames also.No injuries were reported, and the cause was likely to have been a faulty electrical socket, the fire service said.Roberts said on Facebook he’d be open for business as usual on Friday, December 13.
