This is not the first time a fire has broken out at the derelict Grade II listed building, which has been the target of multiple incidents in recent years. Video footage shared by local resident Danielle Louise Reeves shows thick smoke billowing from the site as firefighters work to contain the flames.
Fire crews are expected to remain on the scene for several hours, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
