A fire at a battery recycling plant in North Ayrshire which led to homes being evacuated was not started deliberately.
The blaze at Fenix Battery Recycling on Byrehill Industrial Estate in Kilwinning broke out at 12:40 on Wednesday – a year after another fire at the site.
But following a joint Scottish Fire and Rescue Service (SFRS) and Police Scotland investigation, the force confirmed the blaze was not suspicious.
Local residents reported a series of explosions and spoke of their terror as the flames took hold.
