FIREFIGHTERS battled another blaze at a derelict factory in Sidcup last night. (May 15)
Four fire engines were called to the Richard Klinger factory in Edgington Way at 8.10pm.
The clock tower of the 76-year-old building was alight.
Crews from Sidcup, Eltham and Orpington fire stations spent around 90 minutes bringing the blaze under control.
It is the second fire at the Grade II listed building in as many months.
On March 27 more than 50 firefighters were called to the factory.
The cause of last night's fire is being investigated by the London Fire Brigade and Bexley police.
