A fire service has issued a warning after a fire broke out at a building under construction in Tottenham Hale.
Six fire engines and around 40 firefighters were rushed to the blaze in Ashley Road around 11.30pm on Monday, London Fire Brigade said.
A store cupboard on the ground floor was destroyed by fire, which was under control by 1.15am on Tuesday.
There were no reports of any injuries.
The fire is believed to have involved an electric heater.
A London Fire Brigade spokesperson said: “Fires involving heaters like this are all too common. They usually start when items are placed too close to the heater and ignite.
“Before attempting to move or put away you heater, make sure you turn it off and allow it to cool down properly first. It’s also really important to make sure heaters are well maintained and in good working order.”
