The charred remains of the derelict building
THE County Gazette has been given exclusive footage of the fire that tore through Cornhill in Wellington.
The film was taken on a mobile phone by Ahmet Boga of Wellington Kebab and Pizza Shop, which is in Cornhill.
It shows the flames taking hold before the arrival of the fire brigade.
On the night Mr Boga and his colleagues pitched in by supplying the fire service and fish shop manager Sam Cunningham with food and drink.
