Emergency services are fighting a fire in Silverdale which has been burning since the early hours of Wednesday.

A spokesperson told Newshub firefighters are worried about the three-storey building's stability, as it has been burning for hours.

Four Fire and Emergency crews rushed to the Dobell Road property at 3am to try and battle the blaze.

More than seven hours later the fire is still smouldering with signs of smoke from the upper storey.

Investigators are on the scene to determine how the blaze began.
