On Thursday, April 24th, at 10:55 AM, The Lionville Fire Company was dispatched to the area of Conestoga Road and Lower Pine Creek Road in West Pikeland Township for a reported brush fire. Initial reports by The Chester County 911 Center were that there was a half-acre of brush on fire and rapidly spreading. Assistant 47 arrived and confirmed the report, due to the extent of the fire and the difficult access, brush trucks and additional manpower were requested from The West Whiteland Fire Company, Kimberton Fire Company, Ludwigs Corner Fire Company, East Whiteland Fire Company, and Honey Brook Fire Company.

As crews arrived, they worked in difficult wooded terrain to bring the fire under control.

Lionville Volunteers operated at the scene for 4 hours.

Special thank you to Ridge Fire Company for standing by in our district while we operated at this incident.
