STAFF at the Crest Motel in Burnley had to be led to safety by firefighters as a blaze swept through the ground floor of the hotel's staff building.
The fire, which broke out in the records store, caused thousands of pounds worth of damage. Hundreds of passers-by watched as the thick black smoke rose from the building in Keirby Walk.
