EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 1890s, depicts the brave firefighters of the LCC-MFB Brixton Fire Station in Stockwell, South London. The fire station, located at Shepherds Lane, Ferndale Road, Brixton, was built in 1867 and is a significant piece of firefighting history. In the image, the firemen proudly stand in front of their fire station, posing with their two essential appliances - an escape cart and a steamer pump. The horses, an integral part of firefighting in the Victorian era, are hitched to the wheels of the engines, showcasing the traditional transport methods of the time. Children, fascinated by the firefighters and their equipment, gather around the scene, with one small boy in a sailor suit and hat, eagerly standing on the spare escape ladder. The firemen, dressed in their uniforms, display a sense of pride and camaraderie as they go about their duties. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the daily life of a fire station during the late 1800s. The image is a testament to the courage and dedication of the firefighters of the London Fire Brigade, who risked their lives to protect their communities. Today, the Brixton Fire Station, now a museum, continues to be an important part of London's firefighting history.
