Another Fire!!!!!!!!!!!
 

At 4:45 was driving past the Hargreaves Arms (Bottom of Manchester Rd accross from old fire station) and the skip that is right against the side of the pub window on the car park is well up in flames about 7ft high. Whats going on? Do we have a serial arsonist working accrington?????

Re: Another Fire!!!!!!!!!!!
 

The pub was open cause all the people from inside had come out to see what was going on!! All these fires all seem to be a bit of a coincidence to me.!

Re: Another Fire!!!!!!!!!!!
 

It is very co-incidental is it now 3 major fires in the town now within a month??

Re: Another Fire!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Usually it happens up here & lovely oggle at the fire chappies in their heroic glory - not a snitch so far as its keeping more central now.

The hargreaves is right across from the copshop & courts so maybe answer cold be on cctv:confused:

Wonder if he still liked them if he'd set fire to something and the fire engines where there and his house went up in flames - the fire engines that could have been at his house were elsewhere so they had to get fire engines from Rawtenstall or Haslingden. Because the fire engines were elsewhere they couldnt save his house -everything burnt his most treasured posessions eg photos of his grandma & grandad who had died 5 years before, his school photos, what would he say?

Re: Another Fire!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Seems there was also one in Ossy on Sunday !!

My Dad was a fireman at Ossy for many years. And I remember being scared to death of his bleeper going off and him running out the door, because we never knew if he was going to walk back through the door. As a child it was terrifying. So much much praise to the, clearly, overworked firemen of the area. What is the point in setting fire to things is it a power thing?? Because they wouldnt be very powerful if setting something alight went wrong!!!

Re: Another Fire!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Awwww very true point these firecrews put themselves in danger to save someone & to be put fires out, aww nice happy ending on that link poor chappy:)

Re: Another Fire!!!!!!!!!!!
 

This is over a ten year period, This activity level is normal for a town like Accrington, such as Blackburn have three times this amount of suspicious building fires, please don't worry that Accy has a serial fire starter, nine times out of ten it will be bored kids thinking it will be a laugh to light a fire.
As for the fire at tommy blanks, that was just a fire waiting to happen the amount of tyres they had in the yard was a disgrace, not only was the fire a waste of resources but also caused severe damage to the environment and covered accy and surrounding areas with a poisonous layer of soot.
