Blaze leaves $2m damage at SA property

Several sheds at a South Australian property, including a shearing shed and others storing big farming machines and gas cylinders, have gone up in flames.

The owner of the property in Tarlee, north of Adelaide, realised the sheds were alight early on Tuesday after hearing explosions, the Country Fire Service says.

The CFS believes the fire - which is now under control - started in machinery in a workshop and spread, and estimate it has caused at least $2 million in damage.
