A massive wildfire on Tintwistle Moor near Glossop, burning for weeks and covering an area the size of nine hundred football fields, is finally showing signs of control—but not without challenges. Smoke plumes stretched across Greater Manchester, crews battled under dry conditions using drones to track hidden underground hotspots in stubborn peat, and a slight uptick in flames near Featherbed Moss forced renewed focus. Despite the setbacks, progress is steady as firefighters divide the zone into four sectors, and the A628 Woodhead Pass has reopened—though with temporary traffic lights still in place. Weather remains a key variable as teams keep a close eye on wind shifts.
