Sounds serious. Haven't heard any updates on the situation for a while, only the units pouring in. I'm not very far away so its tempting to go look, but I don't want to get in the way.

Glad the bottlo is okay. Good to see what I believe is Guilford VFRS in attendance, were they first on scene knowing they are less than 1km away?

Personally doubt they were first, but they were definitely among the early responders.

Thanks for posting the full list, Smashed.

The 123-year-old Guildford Hotel was destroyed last night when a blaze ripped through the historic building in what police believe to be a deliberately lit fire.
