FIREFIGHTERS were called to tackle a nightclub fire which is believed to have been started deliberately.

Two crews from Temple attended Rehab nightclub in Corn Street just before 3am last night.

The three-storey building which was closed on arrival has residences above.

Four firefighters wearing breathing apparatus dealt quickly with the small blaze and no evacuations were necessary. The fire caused minor smoke logging on the first floor.
