19.25 Former Elizabeth Shaw factory, Greenbank Road, Easton,
Bristol
Firefighters have dealt with a fire at the former Elizabeth Shaw
chocolate factory in Bristol.
When crews arrived on the scene of the now
void premises they found a fire in the two storey office block
which was affecting the roof and first floor.
Two firefighters wearing breathing apparatus entered the
premises and tackled the fire using two high pressure hose reels.
The hydraulic platform was also used to get access to the roof
which needed to be cut away to ensure the fire was fully
extinguished.
Fortunately no one was inside at the time and no one was
hurt.
The cause of the fire is thought to be
deliberate.
