A fire at a commercial building is being tackled by six crews of firefighters.
Neighbours living close to the blaze in Willow Lane, Paddock Wood, were warned to keep their window and doors closed as a precaution against smoke from the flames when the fire was at its peak.

A spokesman for KFRS said: "Firefighters are making steady progress at the scene of a fire in a large commercial building on Willow Lane in Paddock Wood.
"Six fire engines remain in attendance and crews are damping down any remaining hot spots.
"Previous advice to keep windows and doors closed in the local area due to smoke has now been lifted."
