Three elderly people were rescued and 15 others evacuated from a fire at a Harrow Weald sheltered housing development this afternoon.
The blaze, which damaged half of a four-room ground floor flat in Harkett Close, took an hour for 20 firefighters to bring under control after it started at just before 2pm.
Nobody was hurt by the blaze, which is thought to have been started accidentally.
