Approximately seven wooded acres caught fire behind 184 Smiley Ingram Road and were extinguished by Bartow County Fire Department units Tuesday afternoon.

Four units responded with eight personnel and fought the blaze along with help from the Georgia Forestry Service who built a fire break to contain the fire, according to BCFD's Sgt. Lisa Hahn.

The fire started around 3:30 p.m. and was contained by 5:30 p.m., Hahn said. Although there were structures in the area, the fire damage was contained to the woods, she said. Cause of the fire has yet to be determined.

Smiley Ingram Road is located east of Interstate 75, south of County Road 294 and north of Center Road, south of Cartersville.
