Crews called to fire which '˜gutted' derelict farm house

Firefighters tackled a blaze at a Poulton leisure park last night.

Crews from Blackpool, Bispham, South Shore and Fleetwood were called to Poulton Plaiz on Garstang Road West at around 7.30pm to reports that a derelict farm house was on fire.

A fire service spokesman said: “The property has been completely gutted. At some point it will need to be demolished.”

The fire was extinguished by 10.30pm. An investigation is now underway to determine the cause of the fire.
