Firefighters are currently tacking a large blaze in Glasgow after a fire broke out, as residents are being urged to keep their windows closed.

Large plumes of smoke can be seen in Kingston Street, in the Tradeston area of the city - near the Barclays bank building of the River Clyde.

There are currently no reports of any injuries.

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service were called to reports of the flames engulfing the building at around 9.55am this morning.

Eight appliances - including six pumps and aerial equipment - are currently in attendance as crews are fighting hard to stop the fire.

Drivers are being asked to avoid the area where possible, and seek alternative routes to their destinations.
