A huge fire has broken out at Eastbourne Pier after one of the arcade buildings caught alight at the popular seaside resort. At least 60 fire-fighters are battling to save the iconic Victorian landmark, where the blaze is tearing through the large two-storey arcade building. Scores of beachgoers and tourists have been evacuated from the area by police as fire-fighters attack the flames. Despite high winds hampering efforts in battling the blaze, East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service said crews are making “reasonable progress” from the coastal side of the building, from the beach and from underneath the Pier. Police have said no-one appeared to be trapped on the pier, adding they were not treating it as suspicious
