About 40
firefighters tackled a blaze in a high street.
The fire erupted in a first floor
flat above the Andrews & Co estate agents in New Romney.
Crews wearing breathing apparatus
were sent in to battle the flames and the High Street remains
closed to traffic.
Eyewitnesses said the flat was
wrecked, with the roof caving in but nobody has been injured.
A spokesman for Kent Fire and
Rescue Service said: "All persons are accounted for and no-one has
been hurt in the incident."
Firefighters were first called out
to the scene at 4.50am, but the fire was dealt with by 9.20am.
Six fire engines attended along
with one command support vehicle and a height vehicle.
