Big Fire near Applewood

_blank_ · 2011-08-05 09:48:26

There is a huge fire currently burning on the road from Balheary Road to Applewood Village, in what looks like an old house, where I think Sporting Fingal had their offices, at least 3 fire brigades in attendance, and more arriving. The smoke is thick, and flames can be seen spewing from the roof.

It is an old listed building beside the sporting Fingal grounds.
5 units of DFB attended (including the Turntable ladder) for about 3 hours.

If you look at this week's Fingal Independent you will see the main feature is on this - apparently the building is owned by the same developer who owned the house in Lusk and another property at Belcamp, which were also destroyed by fire recently. There is a reward of 5K€ for information leading to the arrest of those responsible.
