A man is in a serious condition after a fire ripped through a cottage in Wembley on Saturday afternoon.

Fire crews were called to the blaze at Old Park Lodge in Wembley Hill Road, just before 7pm.

The injured man, who is in his 20s, is being treated for burn.

The detached cottage is believed to be one of the oldest houses in Wembley.

An investigation has been launched to determine the cause of the fire.

More to come soon.
