Firefighters from across the county have been tackling a large blaze at a commercial building in Crediton overnight.
It started at around 9.30pm at the Crediton Milling Company at Fordton Mills. All staff were safely evacuated.
On arrival, crews confirmed that smoke and flames were coming from the building and requested five additional fire engines, with the building and roof well alight.
