Images of the fire surfaced online last night, with some locals reminiscing about Christmas parties that used to be held at the premises.

A garda spokesperson said the fire was brought under control by fire services and that no injuries were reported.

Cllr Peggy O Dwyer said it is such a shame, that the building served the "community for so many years".

Another local said: "Devastated this has happened. A very sad evening in our community."
