A fire engine from Camborne was scrambled to reports of smoke rising in the distance near Hayle this weekend.
Firefighters were called to the source of the smoke, in Phillack, just after 10pm on Sunday.
On arrival, they found a pile of unattended rubbish ablaze.
The flames were extinguished and the scene made safe.
