ARSON is suspected as the cause of a blaze at the disused Piano Building in Kidderm-inster.

Firefighters were called to fires on three storeys of the former factory on Weavers' Wharf soon after 5.30pm last Thursday.

Two fire engines from Kidderminster spent an hour tackling three blazes, which burnt through from the second to the fourth floors.

Sub-officer Jim Richards said: "We're treating this as suspicious but as yet we're not really sure who has torched it."

He added: "Our advice to parents is to make sure your kids aren't going in this dangerous building."

Plans submitted by Centros Miller to build a 900-seat cinema would mean the building's demolition.
