Two fire crews were called to a blaze in a bathroom in Clapham.

Bentham and Hornby firefighters attended the incident just after 2.30am on Sunday.

On arrival they found the fire – to an electric towel rail – had been extinguished by the occupants. The crews entered a smoke logged building, ensured it was out, then vented the property using a fan.

Advice was given and left in the hands of the occupiers.
