The housing block appears to be an early 20th century building beside the Lethbridge estate, which is being demolished and rebuilt.

Update: the smoke seems to be dying down in recent minutes with firefighters on aerial platforms. Great work by the Fire Brigade and thanks to Paul @bitoclass for updates.
