EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the London Fire Brigade (LFB) Headquarters station in Southwark, SE1, during the late 1890s. The building, which opened in 1878 under the leadership of Chief Officer Captain Eyre Massey Shaw, served as the Metropolitan Fire Brigade (MFB) headquarters before the London County Council (LCC) took over responsibility for the capital's fire service in 1889. The MFB then changed its name to the London Fire Brigade. In this image, we see the engine house with its horse-drawn escape cart and two horse-drawn steam-driven pumps. These appliances, first introduced into the London Fire Engine Establishment in 1860, were essential for firefighting operations during the Victorian era. The horse-drawn engine, a symbol of the brigade's strength and resilience, was a common sight on the streets of London during emergencies. The turnout of horses and appliances from this station would have been a spectacle to behold, as firefighters raced to put out fires in the buildings surrounding the area. The horses, powerful and determined, played a crucial role in the transport of firefighting equipment to the scene of an incident. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the London Fire Brigade and the vital role horses played in firefighting during the late 19th century. The image is part of the extensive collection of historical photographs from the Mary Evans Picture Library.
