Fire crews from March and Wisbech attended the blaze at Graysmoor Drove overnight, with a crew from Thorney attending the following day.
Martin Boome, Arson Liaison Officer for Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service said: “These fires put lives and livelihoods at risk, and can keep crews busy for long periods.
“We take deliberate stack fires extremely seriously and work closely with the police to bring offenders to justice.”
