Firefighters remain at the scene of a major fire at a former Swindon hotel.

Emergency services arrived at the former South Marston Hotel on Old Viccarage Lane at around 9pm tonight, following reports of flames metres up in the sky.

Fire crews at the scene overnight

Fire crews from across Wiltshire and Gloucestershire attended the fire.

The fire service warned local residents to keep their windows and doors closed.

Earlier in the week, firefighters responded to reports of blaze at the same derelict hotel, which turned out to be controlled burning by contractors.
