The cause of a fire that ravaged through a village hall, GP surgery and library has been revealed. Nottinghamshire Fire Service said the blaze that tore through Gotham Memorial Hall last Thursday (February 16) was accidental electrical.
A spokeswoman said: "A joint fire investigation took place on Friday 17 February, and concluded that the fire at Gotham Village Hall was accidental electrical. We returned to reinspect the scene and found no further hotspots."
As well as "completely" destroying the roof of the village hall, the blaze affected Orchard Surgery. Patients have been temporarily transferred to the Kegworth branch.
NHS Nottinghamshire said Gotham patients should continue to use the existing practice number (0115 983 0011) for appointments and prescriptions.
"We are working with the practice team to explore options for the medium term, with an aim to offer patient care within Gotham as soon as possible", it said in an update on its website.
