A fire has destroyed a pet food warehouse in a part of Nottinghamshire.
About 20 firefighters were called to tackle the blaze at the warehouse on Gateford Road in Worksop at about 0300 BST on Sunday.
Crews from Worksop and Retford worked for some time to bring the fire under control, watch manager Ian Cooper said.
Thermal imaging equipment had to be used to find propane gas cylinders in danger of exploding. An investigation into the cause is now under way.
Mr Cooper said a serious situation had been avoided. "There were some propane cylinders in the building which in a fire can be very dangerous.
"With the explosion risk we used thermal imaging equipment to locate the cylinders so we could cool them immediately.
"The building was well alight when we arrived as there was a lot of timber in the building."
