PICTURED: Claggan Park building goes up in flames

Fire crews are still at the scene of a “well alight” fire at a Highland sports club.

Fire fighters had to be pulled back from the burning building at Claggan Park, Fort William, as ferocious flames took hold.

The fire started in the changing rooms around 8.40pm.

Four crews – including two from Fort William and one from Fort Augustus – were sent to the scene to tackle the “well alight” club.

Fire fighters are using two jets to extinguish the flames.

However, crew that had entered the building using breathing apparatus were stood down around 10pm when the flames became too intense.
