Workers near a fire at an industrial estate in Colwick said they have seen 'nothing like' the scale of blaze that took hold at a waste centre on Friday, April 15, morning. Eight fire engines are tackling a fire at a business on the Colwick industrial estate.
More than 20 tonnes of waste paper is on fire at the Biffa waste centre, according to Nottinghamshire Fire & Rescue. It comes less than 24 hours after another major fire in Clifton, where the former Clifton College campus on Farnborough Road was ablaze on Thursday (April 14) evening.
Residents living near to the scene of the Colwick fire are being urged to keep doors and windows closed, and are urged to avoid the area while the blaze is extinguished. An aerial ladder platform is at the scene to help firefighters put it out.
