Forty firefighters fought to save a disused church in Whitley Bay in Tyne and Wear after a huge fire ripped though the building.
The fire at the Trinity United Reform Church on the Esplanade broke out just after 8pm on Saturday and forced the evacuation of nearby residents.

The Esplanade and Whitley Road were closed, with The Esplanade remaining closed into Sunday afternoon.
The church was thought to have been empty when the fire began and police have confirmed that nobody has been hurt.
