Four pumps, three from Worthing and one from Steyning, were sent to tackle the fire.
Firefighters left the scene shortly after 9pm, before going back for a re-inspection at 11.35pm to ensure the area was safe.
The A27 was closed for a short while last night due to smoke covering the dual carriageway.
