Another massive fire in Margate - Grosvenor Place

http://www.kent.fire-uk.org/KFRS/pageid/518/offset/0/releaseid/987/Press/Press.html

I've only just heard and haven't been down to see the damage yet. What a way to wake up on Sunday morning. Tragic, tragic, tragic. Come on Margate, you can do better. Grosvenor Place is lovely.

Edited to correct the address to Grosvenor Place.

I've been out there this morning. Fire crews are still working on it with cranes and the road is closed off. The fire started in house where a fire had previously taken place recently. This is now gutted. The terrace involved has iron balconies to the front. A passing resident remembers how Grosvenor place used to the a very smart street. How different it is today because of badly maintained buildings offering low standard rental.
