A PIGEON coop went up in flames on Sunday night after an electrical fault.
It is not known how many pigeons were harmed in the blaze.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service received a call just after 10pm for an unknown fire in the town’s Burns Terrace and one appliance from Ardrossan Fire Station was dispatched to find a garden shed well alight.
A single high pressure jet was used to extinguish the flames before it came to light that it was home for pigeons.
Police were then requested from the fire crew as this could have been wilfull fireraising but a spokesperson from Police Scotland said that this a suspected electrical fault and it was not being treated as suspicious.
The fire was brought under control just after 11.30pm by the fire service but it is unclear how many pigeons were harmed in the blaze.
