The Great Fire of Westminster in 1889 started on December 8, when a fire broke out in the basement of a building on Victoria Street, likely due to a faulty flue. The blaze quickly spread to nearby structures, fueled by strong winds and the flammable materials in the area. Despite the efforts of firefighters, the fire devastated several buildings, including parts of the Houses of Parliament, leading to significant damage and subsequent reconstruction efforts.
