These photos show a fire which is raging at a former social club in Sheffield this afternoon.

Firefighters were called to the old Boundary Club site, off Jordanthorpe Parkway, today, Saturday, April 23, shortly before 2.30pm.

A spokeswoman for South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue said it had sent three fire engines to the scene, where crews were still battling the flames.

The Boundary Club was once a thriving site, which was home to Abbey Lane Junior Football Club and a number of amateur senior teams.

The premises was already empty, with the club having moved elsewhere, before the building was smashed up by yobs in 2017.

In 2019, the six-acre plot went on the market with a guide price of £250,000 to £300,000.

It was described at the time as being an opportunity for a residential or mixed development, with the sales brochure saying such a scheme was ‘perfectly possible, but will take time’.
