The Littlewoods Pools building in Liverpool was engulfed by fire on Sunday night, with nine fire crews sent to the scene to battle the flames.

The historic building, constructed in 1938, has been vacant since 2003 after numerous attempts to refurbish it fell through.

No casualties have been reported.
