Assistant Commissioner Paul McCourt from London Fire Brigade said: "The thoughts of everyone within the brigade are with the families impacted by this tragic incident.  I'd like to thank our crews and emergency service colleagues for the determination and dedication they showed when responding to this difficult situation.  The brigade will speak with our firefighters that attended and offer support through our counselling and trauma services where required."

The fire was put out at 01:41 BST.  Roads in the area will remain closed while an investigation continues.
