A community fear they will take a 'massive hit' after the roof of a Nottinghamshire village hall was completely gutted in a fire. Crews from Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service were called to the fire at the Gotham Memorial Hall, off Nottingham Road, on Thursday, February 16.
According to the fire service, there was fire damage to the whole of the building, which included a library and the Orchard Surgery GP practice. Five crews were tackling the blaze, with firefighters asking all residents of the nearby Boswell Crescent and Wodehouse Avenue to keep their windows and doors shut due to smoke.
Nottingham Road was closed in both directions due to the fire between Kegworth Road and Bidwell Crescent. Traffic was slow in the area between Clifton and East Leake.
