The HSE are still finalising their findings. It was one hell of a fire: https://stratfordobserver.co.uk/news/frustration-voiced-at-wait-for-report-into-massive-leamington-factory-fire-46649/

Bones will likely be present, Margaret, typically the thicker bones. I believe even crematoriums use bone crushers as the heat is insufficient to render them down properly. Years ago we used a contractor for maintaining our engine test beds, his main line of business was bone crushers in crematoriums.


Oh I didn't realise that. God, what a job! :(

I imagine there would be a lot of rubble to sift through.

I should think there will be protests if they attempt to build anything that dangerous with hazardous chemicals near a residential area. I don't blame them.

Just a question:- If they are looking for a missing member of staff, he may well have got caught in the inferno and been incinerated. How would they be able to trace any evidence? Not easily I should think.

It's a huge fire. Someone sent me a picture of the smoke from the far side of Warwick.

Had a warehouse not far from me go up a couple of weeks back and a few years ago an engine tuning business went up, I remember the whistling as various projectiles shot through the air, and afterwards the melted window frames of the closest homes. This is why I generally don't approve of mixing industrial units and homes.

I noticed billows smoke around 10 am, We heard a few explosions.

It is remains pretty serious. One person unaccounted for.
Nearby residents have been evacuated from their homes.
