Two structures have been destroyed by a veld fire that burnt out of control in the Slanghoek Valley near Worcester in the Boland yesterday.

Farm owners fled their homes as the fire, fanned by strong winds, approached their properties.
The fire started on Saturday night.

Fifteen fire engines, 150 ground personnel and 3 helicopters were reportedly trying to extinguish the flames.

The cause of the fire is still unclear.
