THESE dramatic pictures show a suspected arson attack that destroyed a storage shed at an allotment site.

They were taken by Lancashire Telegraph reader David Kemp shortly after he called fire crews.

Mr Kemp, 62, a self-employed HGV driver, of Lomax Street, Great Harwood, spotted the blaze on Sunday afternoon just off Alan Ramsbottom Way in the town.

He said: "The fire was really fierce and it could have been much more serious if the fire service hadn't arrived quickly."

The cause is being investigated and being treated as suspicious.
