ESSEX Fire and Rescue Service has released pictures of the damage caused to two Thurrock homes in a blaze this afternoon (Friday, 25 March).
Thurrock Nub News reported on the incident earlier.
Crews were called to a property in Daiglen Drive, South Ockendon, earlier today when a neighbour noticed a garden fire had spread into a conservatory.
Firefighters were called to a house in South Ockendon at 3.11pm, when a garden fire spread out of control and into a house.
On arrival, crews confirmed that there was a fire in the garden, the conservatory and the loft. Crews soon discovered that the fire had also spread into the loft of the adjoining property.
Firefighters from Grays worked quickly to extinguish the fire by 5.20pm. Nobody was harmed but two families have been left homeless as a result of the fire.
A statement from the fire service said: "We would like to thank residents of South Ockendon for being patient with us while our crews tackled the fire."
