A man has been taken to hospital following a blaze in Brondesbury Park.
Around 40 firefighters were called to a ground floor flat in Knightleas Court at 9.43am this morning (April 19) and had flames under control by 10.23am.
Fire crews wearing breathing apparatus rescued a man from the flat, London Fire Brigade said.
He was suffering from smoke inhalation and taken to hospital by London Ambulance Service crews.
Station Commander Richard Janssens said: "Firefighters worked incredibly quickly to rescue the man and stop the fire from spreading to surrounding properties.
"A further six people were evacuated by fire crews all without injury."
Six fire engines from Willesden, West Hampstead, North Kensington, Park Royal and Paddington fire crews were at the scene.
The cause of the fire is under investigation.
