A man was treated in hospital for his injuries after falling from a building at a former mill which has been used as a location for TV drama Peaky Blinders.

Officers were called by the ambulance service at about 12:20 GMT on Tuesday after reports a man had fallen from height at Dalton Mills in Keighley, according to West Yorkshire Police.

The man was taken to hospital for treatment to leg injuries, a force spokesperson said.

The building, on Dalton Lane, has been empty since the 1980s and numerous potential buyers have expressed an interest in bidding for the property.

The Victorian mill was subject to an arson attack in 2022 which destroyed the Genappe Mill at the Grade II* listed complex and caused £15m of damage.

Another suspected arson took place at the mill in December.
