However, an investigation into the cause of the fire has not yet been concluded. A spokesperson for Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service said: “Crews continued to return at regular intervals over the weekend to check for hot spots. As the building had collapsed and deemed structurally unsound, they could not access the full area. For this reason, a fire investigation could not be completed on Saturday as planned.”
