Emergency services were called to a second fire within a matter of days at a closed-down Lancaster pub.
Four fire engines from Lancaster, Morecambe, and Bolton-le-Sands attended a fire at the former Yorkshire Taps pub on Parliament Street at around 3.25pm on Friday.
The fire was extinguished and no injuries were reported.
Police helped the fire service deal with the incident as there was heavy traffic and congestion in the area at the time.
This followed a fire at the premises on Monday August 19.

Since the fires, security fencing has now been put in at the side of the building on Sugar House Alley.
"Following the fires at the Yorkshire Taps and the potentially dangerous nature of the building, the council erected some security fencing around the building on Friday," said a Lancaster City Council spokesperson.
"We have been in contact with the owner to advise that we have secured the building.
"The fencing will stay in place for as long as is required to keep the site safe and secure."
The Yorkshire Taps, previously known as the Yorkshire House, has been closed for several years.
