The fire in Rebecca Street started in the basement of the mill at about 03:30 and 15 fire engines were sent to the scene.

The blaze moved upwards through the building and spread to the roof, but WYFRS say that they managed to contain the fire to one part of the building complex.

They say that they managed to save "a number of other commercial properties" - no one was injured.

Plans to charge second home owners in the Yorkshire Dales five times more for their council tax are due to be discussed today.

It's thought the Park Authority is the first council in the country to look at doing this.

Almost a quarter of properties in the park are either second homes or holiday lets, and the authority says it's pricing younger people and families out of the area.

Carl Lis is chairman of the Yorkshire Dales National Park Authority. He says the current situation is unfair on young people:

Doncaster Council is set to make at least 135 people redundant as budget proposals for 2018-2021 reveal £60m of cuts.

Council tax in Doncaster is set to rise by £50 a year for each of the next three years.

The local authority has to make £16.9m of savings in 2018/19 & £43.3m for 2018/19 to 2020/21.

The Council says the high cost of adult social care, pay and price inflation along with cuts from central government are the cause.

What people are allowed to put near or on the grave of a loved one is to be more vigorously enforced in Scarborough.

The council says it has had hundreds of complaints about people planting trees and bushes and installing LED lights.

Councillor Bill Chatt, from Scarborough Borough Council, says it's about the authority being able to maintain the area:

Here's my full forecast:

Counter terrorism police have confirmed that the house in Meersbrook currently being guarded by police was one of the addresses they raided this morning.

Officers from Counter Terrorism Policing North East have told BBC Radio Sheffield the loud bang heard by residents on Shirebrook Road was "part of the method of entry and nothing untoward".

Three properties in Sheffield and one in Chesterfield are currently being searched in connection with the arrests.

Leader of Richmondshire district council Yvonne Peacock is one of those behind the idea.

She says second homes are empty for much of the time which impacts on the community:
