Witnesses reported hearing an "explosion" and plumes of smoke were visible for miles around.

Four crews were called to the scene at 9.10pm on Thursday evening. North Wales Fire warned nearby residents to keep their windows and doors shut.

The fire has now been put out and is not believed to have affected the port.

Images on social media show the aftermath of the fire at what is believed to be an industrial workshop. There are no reported injuries.
