EDITORS COMMENTS
A haunting image of the LCC-LFB Warehouse fire at Butlers Wharf in Bermondsey, SE London, captured during the harsh chill of a March in the 1930s. The photograph depicts a major docklands fire that engulfed the warehouses, sending thick plumes of billowing smoke into the sky. The fire, which occurred during a particularly cold spell, had drawn a large number of firefighters from the London Fire Brigade to the scene. The firefighters, clad in their brass helmets and heavy uniforms, are seen tirelessly attacking the blaze with their hoses. The frozen water from the hoses, a stark contrast to the fiery inferno, creates an intriguing juxtaposition. In the foreground, the remnants of the ruins and rubble are scattered about, a testament to the intensity of the fire.
