Fire Breaks Out At Britain’s Biggest Mosque.
The fire appears to have broken out at the mosque, the largest Western Europe, at about midday.
Phil Morton, station commander for Croydon fire station, told the Press Association the cause of the blaze was still unknown.
People attending for prayers were evacuated from the building after the ground and first floors were hit. But damage was done and one person was taken to hospital.
Dozens of firefighters are battling a blaze at a mosque and community centre in south London.
London Ambulance Service said they have treated a man in his 40s for smoke inhalation who has now been taken to hospital.
“It is a very lovely building and what has happened is very sad”, said Stephen Alambritis, leader of the Merton Council local authority.
A London fire brigade spokesman said: “We have 10 fire engines and 70 firefighters there”. I am sure that this community will want to know themselves whether there is any possible arson.

The mosque can accommodate up to 10,000 people and cost millions to build. It opened in 2003.
