At 1:43am on Saturday, 7 March, we received reports of a fire in a derelict building on Wokingham Road in Bracknell.
Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service crews from Bracknell, Wokingham, Ascot, Wokingham Road and Whitley Wood fire stations were sent to the scene, alongside an Incident Command Unit from Maidenhead Fire Station and one Officer.
Upon arrival, crews found a fire in the building. Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus used two hose reels to put out the fire, before using a ventilation fan to clear the smoke from the building. The scene was then handed over to Thames Valley Police.
Crews were on scene for approximately three hours and 40 minutes.
