Major fire at derelict Peaky Blinders mill
The massive blaze broke out at Dalton Mills at about 20:00 BST on Saturday
Another major fire has broken out at a derelict mill complex where Peaky Blinders was filmed.
The blaze at Dalton Mills in Keighley started at about 20:00 BST on Saturday and at its peak required 12 fire engines to tackle it.
West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service (WYFRS) confirmed that due to the severity of the incident a number of nearby residents were evacuated and at 23:00 BST, 10 fire engines were still in attendance.
A spokesperson added: "Members of the public are still advised to avoid the area to allow emergency services to operate safely and effectively."
At its height the blaze needed 12 crews, said WYFRS
Bradford Council emergency planning officers were also at the scene to provide "support and guidance" to those affected by the evacuation.
It is the third fire this year at the Grade II-listed Victorian building, which was used as a filming location for period dramas Peaky Blinders and Downton Abbey.
Crews were also called to a blaze there in July 2025 and there was a major fire that destroyed a significant part of the former textile mill in 2022.
Police previously said they believed most of the fires to be deliberate and two teenagers were convicted of arson in relation to the 2022 incident.
