Sadly we attended a deliberate fire in one of the empty houses in Church Road this afternoon... the owners are arranging for them to be secured again but we know theyโve been used by youngsters to hang out in... please keep out as they are really dangerous now! ๐๐๐๐#staysafe pic.twitter.com/dmkpme3Q97
