Huge warehouse fire in Bradford

    Fire crews from across West Yorkshire were called out to a large blaze at a warehouse in Bradford.

    Over 20 engines attended the Gordon Rhodes and Son warehouse on the Eurocam Technology Park in West Bowling at around 10.00pm last night, 9 August.

    The building was used for the storage of flour, seeds, herbs and spices.

    A spokesperson from the fire service said the fire “developed quite rapidly because it was in a tin-cladded structure which hampered initial firefighting.”

    Surrounding properties were evacuated and members of the public were advised to keep all windows and doors closed as a precaution.
