Fire Alarm Fail: Portsmouth Block Shut Down at 11pm!
Last night at 11pm, Hampshire Fire and Rescue teams and the police swooped on Windsor House in Canal Walk, Portsmouth, armed with a High Court warrant. Their mission? To install fire alarms in every flat — because shockingly, the entire building had no working fire alarm system.
Same Block Burned Down in 2014
Windsor House isn’t just any building. It’s the very block that went up in flames back in 2014. Yet, nearly a decade later, it still lacks a proper fire alarm system, putting residents at serious risk.
All Flats Banned from Use Until Alarms Go Live
Fire crews left a stark warning notice downstairs: All flats are prohibited from use until a fire warning system is fully installed. Residents face immediate displacement in a high-tension crackdown.
