After the second fire at Melbourne House, Osmaston Road, Derby. 6th June 2025

The Police on site were really friendly, you could have gone wading in there like one of those terrible auditors, I prefer positive engagement when ever I fly my drone. I hand out my business card with my socials on.
At about 4.15am today (Friday 6th June 2025) this Grade II-listed Derby building caught fire for the second time, Last time the fire was Friday 12th January 2024.
Amazing home many times these lovely listed buildings “have fires” isnt it.

I remember the video you posted after the first fire. Such a shame as it’s a lovely building. Reckon it’ll be homeless people who’ve lit a fire to try and keep warm. :wink:

I now see the fire brigade are saying the fire was started deliberately. Now wondering who owns it and what plans they had/ have for the site ?
