London Fire Brigade said around 150 firefighters were tackling the blaze which is covering an area half the size of a football pitch.

Residents from flats in several nearby three to four-storey buildings and a pub were moved out amid fears that the fire on the neighbouring construction site was spreading to their properties.

However, the blaze, which was reported just before 4.30am, has since taken hold of the pub and maisonettes on Sumner Road and Rosemary Road.

One person has been taken to hospital suffering from the effects of breathing in smoke. Their condition is understood not to be life-threatening.

Ambulances are on standby but no other casualties have so far been reported from the blaze.

A spokesman for London Fire Brigade said the fire broke out at a building site in Carisbrooke Gardens, with gas cylinders possibly involved.

He said: "The fire seems to have started on a large building site and has now spread to some nearby maisonettes and a pub.

"So we are dealing with lots of scenes of fire, which is making tackling it very difficult. It seems to have spread very rapidly.

"We have around 150 firefighters there who are doing all they can to bring it under control.

"Fortunately there are no reported casualties at this stage and there has been a large scale evacuation led by the police."

Thirty fire pumps were at the scene, along with officers from the Metropolitan Police.

Officers are moving the evacuees to emergency accommodation and several roads in the area have been closed.
