A storeyed building in Chattelle street city was totally destroyed by yesterday morning fire. A preliminary estimate puts damage above 11000. Firefighters battled the blaze in extreme danger inside the structure as walls collapsed and nearby stocks of spirits and wines were destroyed or ruined.

A volunteer crew and the Army Air Corps museum units assisted, and a large area was evacuated as investigators began to survey the scene.
