Go to Blazes (1962)? That was in colour though.

It's not British or set in London, but there's a fire engine chase finale in the black and white Abbott and Costello film called In Society (1944).

Could it be "Passport to Shame". I haven't seen it for ages but I seem to remember a blazing building at the climax of the film and a girl (Odile Versois) getting rescued from it by Eddie Constantine and his mates while Herbert Lom fell to his death.
