FIREFIGHTERS battled to avoid an oil spill yesterday after a skip lorry left the road near Ross-on-Wye.
The lorry had left the B4234 Walford Road, near Walford Church, just after midday and was overhanging a stream.
Fire service press officer Alec Mackie said there had been a slight oil leak, and one crew from Ross were called to make the vehicle safe.
