Firefighters spent over five hours tackling a blaze at a building in the Northern Quarter. Crews were scrambled to an unnamed 'commercial property' on Edge Street after a fire broke out at around 1.30pm on Wednesday (October 12).
Pictures from the scene showed a fire service cordon in place at the junction of Edge Street and High Street, in the bustling area of Manchester city centre heavily populated with bars and restaurants.
Three fire engines and a specialist turntable ladder were drafted in and parked inside the cordon as crews tackled the flames.
