Inside the burnt out caf茅 dividing Dorchester

Work to stabilise and clear a caf茅 and three neighbouring buildings following a fire is making progress.

The fire tore through the Grade II listed Gorge Caf茅 in South Street, Dorchester where novelist Thomas Hardy trained as an architect on 9 December shortly after 03:30 GMT.

A section of the street has been sealed off since, this was extended after the building collapsed further several weeks after the fire.
