The building and two ambulances were significantly damaged by fire, with the damage bill estimated at $1 million.

A replacement ambulance was sent immediately from Northam "so the town was not without an ambulance service", a St John Ambulance spokesman said.

The arson squad has been investigating the charred remains of the York building.

Police are appealing to the public to come forward with any information about the fire.
