Crews remain at Groundwell Industrial Estate

Three fire crews remain at the scene of an explosion and large blaze at a warehouse.

Police, ambulance and firefighters were called to Groundwell Industrial Estate on Crompton Road in Swindon, Wiltshire, at about 19:30 BST on Wednesday.

Nearby buildings were evacuated and people living near the area were told to stay indoors and keep their windows closed. A cordon was also put in place at the scene, but has since been lifted.

A spokesperson from Dorset and Wiltshire Fire and Rescue Service (DWFRS) said its crews worked to dampen down the blaze overnight and an investigation into the fire would continue on Thursday.

Emergency services confirmed that nobody was hurt in the incident.

At the height of the blaze, DWFRS said it had 12 fire engines at the scene, along with other specialist vehicles.

A water tower from an aerial ladder platform and ground monitors were used to extinguish the fire and three crews remained at the scene overnight to continue to dampen it down.

The building at the site of the explosion was being used by a printing business called ESP Smile, the BBC confirmed by verifying video footage of the aftermath.

The company has been approached for comment.
