A number of leading media websites are currently not working, including the Guardian, Financial Times, Independent and the New York Times.
The UK government website – gov.uk – is also down.
Affected websites displayed the message: “Error 503 Service Unavailable”.
Early reports have suggested it could be related to Fastly, a cloud computing provider, which underpins a lot of major websites.
Fastly said it was looking into problems with its global content delivery network (CDN).
In an error message posted just before 11am BST Fastly said it was “currently investigating potential impact to performance with our CDN services.”
It has not yet provided a formal statement.
