Four fire engines and around 25 firefighters tackled a fire at a mixed-use building on Bishopsgate in the City of London.
Half of the ground-floor frontage and part of the first floor were damaged by fire. There were no reports of any injuries.
The Brigade’s Control Officers were called at 1428 and mobilised four fire engines and around 25 firefighters from Dowgate, Shadwell, Bethnal Green and Soho fire stations to the scene. The fire was under control by 1843.
The fire is believed to have been caused by an electrical fault.
