Blaze breaks out at yard

FIRE crews battled a blaze at a workers' yard at the new Archerfield housing estate in East Lothian.

The fire broke out in a makeshift roofed building on the outskirts of North Berwick at around 9.30pm last night. At the height of the blaze, 23 firefighters tackled the flames after initially suspecting there may be acetylene canisters on the premises.

Crews were still dampening down the site this morning. No one was within the building when the fire broke out.
