FIRE crews are fighting a blaze at a wooden building containing flammable gas.
A third of the building in Navestock, near Abridge, was alight when firefighters arrived about 40 minutes ago today (Tuesday).
Cylinders of oxygen and argon gas are in the burning building in Muthering Lane and three crews are fighting it with jets of water.
The building is in the same road as a derelict house that caught fire two years ago, although there is no suggestion that the two incidents are linked.
