Firefighters have issued a candle safety warning after a flat fire on Ferry Lane in Brentford.
Part of a four-roomed flat on the ground floor of the building was damaged by fire, while smoke affected the whole of the property. There were no reports of any injuries.
The fire is believed to have been accidental and caused by a candle.
A London Fire Brigade spokesperson said: “Candles are one of the most common causes of fire. It’s really important that you never leave a candle unattended and keep them away from anything else that can easily catch alight.”
The Brigade was called at 0911 and the fire was under control by 0958. Three fire engines and around 15 firefighters from Chiswick and Heston fire stations attended the scene.
