The formerly listed venue had been derelict since the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service confirmed that they were called to the Glasgow Road venue at 1.20am this morning, with the road remaining closed to traffic as firefighters battle the blaze.
Historic Environment Scotland last year removed the category B listing on the building, following an application from its owners - who lodged plans to partially demolish the building. Last year members of West Dunbartonshire Council’s planning committee tasked local authority chiefs to write to Christina McKelvie, Minister for Culture, Europe and International Development, and the Chief Executive of Historic Environment Scotland expressing disappointment at the de-listing decision.
