EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily life at Dulwich Fire Station in London, as a seven-man crew proudly poses on the forecourt with their Merryweather steam pump, a vital piece of equipment in the Victorian firefighting era. The horse-drawn appliance was a common sight on the streets of London during the late 19th century, and the firefighters lived at the station with their families, as seen by a curious family member peering through the lace curtains of the accommodation at first floor level. The London Fire Brigade's Dulwich station, which opened in 1889, was one of many fire stations that housed both the firefighting apparatus and the families of the firefighters. The Merryweather steam pump, a powerful and versatile piece of equipment, was capable of delivering large volumes of water to extinguish fires. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the camaraderie, dedication, and community spirit of the firefighters who risked their lives to protect the people of London during the Victorian era.
