Third blaze in three days at town's derelict cinema

Fire crews have been called to three separate incidents in as many days at the former ABC Cinema site in Tunbridge Wells.

Last night, shortly before 10pm, firefighters tackled a blaze on the second floor of the derelict building in Mount Pleasant Road.

On Saturday at 10.50pm three vehicles attended a fire there.

Firefighters were called out again on Sunday night shortly after 11pm to deal with a fire on the ground floor.

The cinema shut in October 2000 and its redevelopment has become a deeply controversial issue in the town.
