Fire crews have been battling a blaze at a "beautiful building" overnight.
Residents have been left saddened after the fire broke at Bo'ness Bowling Club at around 11pm on Thursday night.
Four fire engines were called at the height of the blaze to bring it under control. It's understood they are no longer at the scene.
Local Tina Paterson shared dramatic photos of huge flames which could be seen from a distance over the town after the inferno broke out. "It looked really bad", she told Edinburgh Live.
The bowling club had shut in late 2017 after club members voted to shut it down.
Since then, the Grange Terrace premises has been targeted by vandals who had their attempt to torch it foiled by police, in February last year.
