The Uxbridge Road was this morning (1 May) after a fire broke out in a restaurant.

58 Firefighters from six local stations tackled the blaze which took hold in the kitchens and the flats above The Corner Terrace on the junction with Woodgrange Avenue. The fire also appears to have spread to the roof space above the post office. Firefighters used ladders to rescue two people from the burning building.

The fire was brought under control at around 8am but London Fire Brigade are still on the scene damping down the burnt area.

A London Fire Brigade spokesman said: “Fire crews from Acton, Ealing, Chiswick, Park Royal, Hammersmith and Wembley fire stations attended.

“The cause of the fire is not known at this stage.”

The Uxbridge Road was closed in both directions until around 10am.
