EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph depicts St Johns Wood fire station, a historic building that once stood proudly in Adelaide Road, NW3, London. Opened in 1871, this fire station was operated by the London County Council (LCC) and the Metropolitan Fire Brigade (MFB), two entities that came together to form the London Fire Brigade in 1966. The Victorian-era fire station, with its red brick facade and ornate detailing, exudes an air of grandeur and importance. The large bay doors, positioned at the center of the building, were designed to accommodate the horse-drawn fire engines that were the backbone of the fire service during that era. The station's bell tower, perched atop the roof, served as a warning signal for the community when a fire emergency arose. The fire station was an essential part of the St Johns Wood community for over four decades. However, with the advent of motorized fire engines and the changing needs of the fire service, the station closed its doors in 1915. Today, this photograph serves as a reminder of the vital role that fire stations played in the past and continues to play in our communities, ensuring the safety and protection of our homes and loved ones. This photograph, taken in the late 1890s, is a precious piece of history from the Mary Evans Picture Library. It offers us a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the evolution of firefighting services and the transformation of our urban landscapes over time.
