Last night’s fire at the disused Pails Bakery, Craven Street, came shortly after it was sold at auction but before the sale had been completed. Cllr Bally Singh, Lead West Midlands Fire Authority member, said “It’s such a shame to hear of fire at the historic Pails bakery on Craven Street, and I hope the original baking oven inside has survived. I would also like to thank the fire crews who responded to the incident, for their great work putting the fire under control.”
