Two schools had to be evacuated today as a fire rages at a Harrow garage.
Norbury School and Quainton Hall School had to escort pupils from their building as six fire engines battled the blaze in Parrs Garage in Hindes Road.
The evacuation was ordered due to fears gas cylinders at the site might explode and police have set up a cordon at a 200 metre radius around the fire.
Headstone Road, Harrow View, and Hindes Road are all closed to traffic and officers are urging residents to avoid the area if possible.
Police are reporting no casualties.
