Around 70 firefighters were sent to the home of JLS star Oritsé Williams this afternoon after a large fire broke out - just days after he was cleared of raping a fan in a hotel room. Ten fire engines were called to the blaze at the singer's £3million mansion in Croydon at around 4.27pm. Fire crews from Addington, Croydon, Biggin Hill were dispatched to help control the flames. Part of the first and second floor of a detached three-storey building were badly damaged by the fire. With the London Fire Brigade reporting that the second floor was 80 per cent damaged by the inferno. The cause of the fire is currently under investigation, but no persons were injured in the fire. The 32-year-old singer's home had fallen into a state of disrepair after he was charged with rape last year.

A unused table tennis table is pictured in front of the burnt out shell of Mr Williams' home Fire crews from Addington, Croydon, Biggin Hill, Purley and surrounding fire stations were sent to the scene. The roof was completely destroyed in the blaze. Four firefighters stand on after desperately trying to save the property from complete destruction A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said: 'Officers attended with London Fire Brigade. There were no reported injuries. Work is ongoing to determine the cause of the fire.' The property was formerly owned by the late comedian Ronnie Corbett and pictures taken late last year show a smashed window, a broken fence and an overgrown garden with discarded furniture. Last week, the singer was found not guilty of the rape. He had been accused of launching a sex attack on a 20-year-old tattoo artist, after plying her and two pals with alcohol on December 2, 2016. Friend and tour manager Jamien Nagadhana, also 32, was also charged with sexual touching and assault by penetration of the same woman at the pair's room in Wolverhampton's Ramada Hotel. A jury of eight women and four men took two hours and 17 minutes to find Williams and Nagadhana not guilty of all charges following a trial at Wolverhampton Crown Court. Oritse Williams (pictured leaving Wolverhampton Crown Court last month) had let his £3million London home fall into disrepair. He was last week found not guilty of rape following a trial at Wolverhampton Crown Court Video footage captured fire crews attending the scene of the fire, with smoke visible in the distance. Ten fire engines were dispatched to the blaze, according to the London Fire Brigade. And at its height, there were around 70 firefighters in action The singer is not believed to have been living in his Croydon property at the moment. He had previously spoken of renovating it, but this was likely put on hold following during his trial. Ronnie Corbett lived in the home, which was said to be his pride and joy for 33 years. He passed away in March 2016. Mr Williams moved into the property back in 2013, with then girlfriend AJ Azari. The pair share a son. Photos from the rundown property showed a slimy green swimming pool, along with a fence in disrepair surrounding the property, and an overgrown garden with some discarded furniture. He put the the six-bedroom detached house on the market in January this year for £1.75 million. But it appears nothing happened with the property, which boasts several lavish details such as a bedroom hot tub, indoor balconies and marble detailing throughout. The lounge could be mistaken for a theatre with a grand ceiling and huge archways for homeowners to enjoy, while the back of the room has a wooden open balcony looking out onto the room which is supported by two pillars and a huge marble fireplace.

Weeds and bushes have overgrown, and the fencing is looking very tired The kitchen also has a theatrical theme with an archway and Georgian-style pillars surrounding a state-of-the-art double oven, while a dark pink marble island can serve as both a preparation and seating area for cooking. And as expected, the bedroom follows the luxurious style with sparkly crown tiles, a huge whirlpool bathtub, a mirrored wardrobe and a terrace balcony. Meanwhile, the bathroom has patterned tiles with a black and white floral design. It also has a huge wet room shower. Home owners could also enjoy a large garden, which boasts an outdoor swimming pool and a ping pong table - but this is among the items which have deteriorated over the years. At the time of purchase, Oritsé said he was committed to renovating the property, telling Hello! Magazine: 'There's no point doing things half-heartedly. 'Even though it's a big project, we thought we'd take it on, work hard on it together and grow in it together.' Ronnie Corbett lived in the home, which was said to be his pride and joy for 33 years.
