A massive fire tore through The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp early Friday evening in Ashford, reportedly destroying several camp buildings and threatening more on the grounds.

Crews responded to the scene late Friday afternoon and tried to contain the fire before it spread to other parts of the camp, according to multiple media reports at the time.

Further details about the extent of the damage or cause of the fire were not immediately available as crews from multiple area towns remained on the scene, where heavy smoke continued to billow above the grounds as night fell.
