Four fire engines and around 25 firefighters were called to a fire in a basement of a block of flats on Ashburton Place in Westminster.

Almost half of a sauna and steam room in the basement of the building was destroyed by fire. Thankfully, no injuries are reported.

The Brigade was called at 1953 and the incident was over by 2104. Fire crews from Dowgate, Chelsea and Paddington fire stations were at the scene.

The cause of the fire is accidental and due to combustible items being stored to close to a heat source.
