Blaze strikes Old Dover School

We were finishing up our tomato canning about 11:30 last night when I smelled smoke and went outside to investigate. The air was pretty thick with smoke. Everything on the farm was OK, so we hopped into the truck and took a drive down 32 less than a block when we spotted the fire. We are across the road from the SW corner of the building. We came home and called 911 and our neighbors to alert them - engines were out there until about 4 this morning - luckily no cinders fell on the gas station across the street from the fire, or we would've have some real problems.

Firefighters were called to a blaze at the Old Dover School just after 11 p.m. Thursday.

Update: Fire could be end for old Dover school

“serious, serious work” would be necessary ... to salvage the structure
