Police seek four boys after derelict school arson

Police are looking for four boys in connection with a fire at a derelict school which officers believe was started deliberately.

Eight crews were originally sent to the blaze at the former Moira House School buildings in Upper Carlisle Road, Eastbourne, at about 17:45 BST on Sunday.

Shortly after 08:00 on Monday, East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service station manager Trevor Funnell said the response had been scaled back to two fire engines, but he expected firefighters to be there for most of the day.

Sussex Police, who were appealing for information, said the four "boys/young people" were thought to have entered the site on Sunday afternoon.
