Multiple crews are tackling a blaze at a derelict building in Derbyshire.

Firefighters were called to a former quarry site in Dale Road in Matlock at 17:07 BST on Friday.

Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service (DFRS) said the blaze could "be seen several miles away due to its location".

Anyone who can smell or see smoke from the fire is urged to keep their windows and doors shut.

DFRS said seven fire engines, two water carriers and two aerial ladder platforms had been sent to the scene.

Emergency services are expected to remain there for "some considerable time", it added.
