Firefighters were called to a town centre pub after an electrical fault caused white smoke to pour from a window.
The electric metre at Esmerelda's on Peel Street started to give off smoke at about 6pm on Sunday and crews from Barnsley, Cudworth and Tankersley attended the scene.
Firefighters used dry powder to stop the metre smoking and the electricity board was called to check the electrics.
The fire crews shortly after 8pm.
The bar was closed at the time and there was nobody inside.

We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.

Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
