EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a pivotal moment in the history of the London Fire Brigade (LFB) as Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II officially opens the new Lambeth brigade control room at the Centenary Review of the LFB in 1966. The room, located at Lambeth Headquarters, represented a significant advancement in firefighting operations and communication technology for the brigade. The control room was designed to facilitate efficient and effective response to fire emergencies across the Lambeth borough. The interior is adorned with state-of-the-art equipment and communication systems, allowing for seamless coordination between firefighters in the field and the control room staff. The women in the photograph, dressed in their uniforms, are a testament to the growing role of women in the fire service during the 1960s. While women had been allowed to join the LFB as auxiliary fire service members since World War II, it was not until 1975 that they were permitted to become full-time firefighters. The control room operated around the clock, with teams of highly trained firefighters and support staff working together to ensure the safety of Londoners. The room was the nerve center of the brigade's operations, with communication lines open to all 121 fire stations across the city. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the inner workings of the London Fire Brigade during a time of significant change and innovation. The control room at Lambeth HQ represented a crucial investment in the future of the fire service, ensuring that the brigade was equipped to meet the challenges of the modern world.
