They were called to the scene on Birketts Place just after 11 o'clock last night (Monday June 19).

Six fire engines from Bolton-le-Sands, Silverdale, Carnforth and Cumbria Fire and Rescue Service, along with the aerial ladder platform from Preston attended the scene.

The fire service’s specialist drone team were also in attendance.

Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used one hose reel, two hose reel jets and a ground monitor to bring the fire under control, with crews remaining on scene damping down and monitoring hotspots through the night.

An investigation is underway.
