Dramatic moment a £600k terraced house in London suddenly collapsed on itself during refurb
Neighbours said the collapse sounded like a “bomb had gone off” as the building crashed to the ground

A £600,000 house in London collapsed during renovation work today.
Neighbours said the collapse sounded like a “bomb had gone off” as the building crashed to the ground.
Cops were called in to close off the road when the 100-year-old end of terrace four bedroomed Edwardian house's front walls began to bow outwards.
Lewisham police had tweeted a picture of the leaning house moments before the roof caved in, saying it was "structurally unstable".
But suddenly the South East London home caved in on itself.
Officers from Lewisham Central Safer Neighbourhood Team said immediate neighbours had been evacuated and builders were on scene.

But minutes later the property had collapsed, with dramatic pictures showing the external wall at the front of the house hanging off in Lee, near Lewisham, South East London.
Ted Aston, 55, who runs Trineire Architects in Lee has walked and cycled past the house on his way to work over the past few weeks.
He said: "There's been some sort of refurbishment work going on at the house. It had some hoarding up at the front to protect the public while the work was going on but then this happened.
"I've gone past the house on my way to and from work as I live locally.
"You could see the walls were bowing this morning and when I went back it had collapsed in on itself.
"It's such a shame. They are lovely houses - around 100 years old.
"A woman at the scene told me that apparently all the interior walls had been removed. I don't know how true that is but I don't know why they would do that."
Company director Ken Taylor told the : “Today they were just about to start inspecting it with a cherry picker when the whole roof fell in.
“It was really exciting, there was a big crunch and a big cloud of dust, it was like a bomb had gone off.”
