A quiet silence replaces the noise of several fire engines that descended on Kent Road in Blackpool on Saturday to battle a fire that had broken out at a derelict building.

A 12-year-old boy and a teenager have been arrested on suspicion of arson after a fire at derelict club used in a Robbie Williams music video.

The blaze broke out just before 15:00 BST on Saturday at the former Central Club on Kent Road in Blackpool.

Lancashire Police said the boy had been bailed pending further inquiries and the 19-year-old man remained in custody.

Residents were warned to keep their windows shut as smoke was seen billowing from the ex-working men's club, which featured in the star's 2005 song Advertising Space.
