Fire tears through roof of historic church in Angus
Fire crews have extinguished a serious fire at a derelict historic church in Angus.
Six fire engines were sent to the blaze in the former Maison Dieu Church of Scotland building, on Witchden Road in Brechin, shortly before 15:00 on Wednesday.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) said crews were met by a "well-developed" fire.
They extinguished the flames, which had torn through the church roof, and there were no reports of any casualties at the building, which dates back to the 1890s.
