BUILDERS could be to blame for a blaze on the roof of a flat next door to a Horwich bar.
Firefighters were called to an empty commercial property next door to Sam’s Bar in Lee Lane at around 5pm today after reports of a small fire on the roof of the building.
Officers said the flames, which were quickly extinguished, could have been the result of work done on the roof by builders earlier today.
Tina Beck, manager of Sam’s Bar, said: “It had no effect on us whatsoever and has not caused any damage. We are open as usual.”
