The people of a Paisley community are today rallying to support their neighbours who have been left with “nothing” following a devastating fire.
All eight homes at 14 Belmont Road, Gallowhill were ravaged by flames when a fire broke out around 10.30pm. The fire started in a first-floor flat but quickly spread across the roofs of neighbouring properties.
Within an hour, the entire block was engulfed in flames. Residents who fled for their lives left only with the clothes on their backs. Tragically, 38-year-old Claire McFadyen has been named locally as the woman who died at the scene.
