Firefighters work through night tackling blaze at derelict school

FIREFIGHTERS have worked through the night tackling a blaze at a derelict school.

Emergency services were called to the scene at a primary school on the Clune Park estate in Port Glasgow at 8.43pm on Sunday.

At the height of the incident around 30 firefighters were tackling the blaze, with six appliances and specialist resources at the scene in the Inverclyde town.

Footage taken from nearby by Inverclyde Council Labour group leader Stephen McCabe showed the building being overwhelmed by flames.

McCabe tweeted: "Major fire in Port Glasgow tonight at the former Clune Park Primary in Robert Street."

Three appliances were still there at 6.30am on Monday morning.

There were no reports of any injuries.
