Firefighters have tackled a large blaze at a former social club in Sheffield.

Five fire engines were called to the vacant Manor Social Club on City Road at about 18:20 GMT on Sunday, South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue said.

One engine remained at the scene on Monday morning with the road still closed.

No injuries were reported but the fire service asked people living nearby to keep windows and doors closed due to the amount of smoke.
