Watch: Haunting images of landscape three weeks after Stourbridge wildfires

The landscape around the area still shows the deep scars and damage caused by the wildfires.

A new video has shown the level of damage still visible in and around the area devastated by the Stourbridge wildfires.

More than three weeks after the fire broke out, with 19 houses destroyed and many others damaged, the video by Express & Star videographer Martyn Greswolde shows the haunting aftermath of the fires.

The area around Norton Lane, Worcester Lane and Racecourse Lane has large areas of blackened grass which are visible from the roads, as well as numerous burnt out trees on the edge of fields.

The remnants of emergency services involvement in the fire can also be seen, with bits of police and fire tape flapping in the wind from gate posts and alongside severely burnt wooden posts.

From Worcester Lane, the devastation caused can still be seen, with the side of the railway track blackened, while fencing is being erected to cover up some of the properties destroyed by the fire.

The video offers a grim reminder of the devastation caused by the fire and the scale of the task to clear up the debris and detritus left behind.
