More than 350 people had to be evacuated because their properties were at risk during the blaze in August - with some residents still unable to return home.
Two teenagers have admitted starting a huge fire at a former printworks during last summer’s riots - causing widespread disruption and displacing hundreds of people.
James Evans, 19, and Justin Keeling, 18, entered the building in Crewe, Cheshire, on the afternoon of Friday 9 August and set a large pile of cardboard alight before the flames spread quickly and a major incident was declared.
Keeling filmed some of the early stages of the fire on his mobile phone.
Police have said the teenagers walked to Keeling’s home after the blaze and were "laughing and joking along the way".
The disused industrial premises is located on the junction of Catherine Street and Frances Street in Crewe town centre and is surrounded by a number of terraced houses.
