Emergency personnel were called back Wednesday afternoon to East Wells Hill Lane in Bulls Gap after a barn fire rekindled.
The fire was initially reported on the Kenneth Lamons property in the 600 block of East Wells Hill Lane on Tuesday. Lamons told the Greene County Sheriff’s Department a neighbor called to report the barn on fire.
According to Lamons, there was no electricity running to the barn, which was used only to store hay. About 200 bales were destroyed. The barn was valued at $30,000.
