Dizzy Posted July 7, 2012 Report Share Posted July 7, 2012 Just heard on the Radio Warrington that Cromwell Avenue is CLOSED as Boots at Westbrook is on fire (I heard it at about 9.50pm) I'm not sure if it's the whole of Cromwell Ave or just the bit near boots.

sadako Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 It's Boots and Next. I have a photo that a friend sent me. I don't know anything more than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 My mate posted this on facebook.... looks like the bit they are building on the side for the Next Home store. You can see the scaffolding and canvas sheeting. I wonder if Macdonalds burgers will be overdone now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted July 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 So glad tha no-one got hurt as that was one heck of a fire The fire brigage were still working there late this afternnoon (4pm ish) and you could still see feint clouds of smoke coming out of the new 'Next' extension. Considering it's said to have started in Boots that seems to have come a little better off from outward appearances than the Next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazj Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 Love the slogan "We're changing.... we'll be ready soon".... think someone needs to think of a new one now!! They had hoses running back up Cromwell Avenue to the canal to pump water for the fire.... They were still there tonight when I came that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Did anyone see the photo on the BBC webpage? It just looked like the sign was on fire with a couple of dissintersted firemen walking away. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-18759351 Caption could have read... Call that a fire?
