Firefighters are battling a huge blaze at a derelict building in Blackpool this morning.
Six fire engines were scrambled to the scene on Tyldesley Road just after 5.45am, LancsLive reports. Pictures showed a huge plume of thick, black smoke coming from the blaze.
An aerial platform is being used to put out the flames, the fire service said, and a drone is also being used at the scene. A large cordon is in place around the building and people are being urged to avoid the area.
