a huge column of smoke, somewhere to the south (ish) of nottingham?

i can see it from my house in derby, and it looks huge
the base of it was iluminated by a fire, i think.

anyone know what it is?
the smoke has been there since at least 4pm today as i was on my way home from work

heh, i can still see it as the base is lit up by something very bright beneath it.
after looking at a map, i think it might be near loughborough

On the news this morning about it

A Pallet yard in Castle Donnington went up about 9pm last night, still damping down this morning, it close one of the railway lines nearby at the time
