A second fire in the space of a week has tore through the premises of a former pub in Gateshead.
Crews from Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service attended the scene of a blaze on Carlisle Street in Felling at the site of the former Malting House pub yesterday evening after 9.30pm (June 10). Another fire previously took place at the same venue on Wednesday evening (June 8).
Four fire engines were called to the scene, alongside an aerial ladder platform in order to tackle this latest blaze at the building.
