EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph, taken in 1905, captures the LCC-LFB Deptford fire station located at 189 Evelyn Street in SE London. The Edwardian-era building, which remains operational today, was a typical fire station of the period with living quarters for firemen and their families residing in the upper floors. Deptford fire station was one of several stations to provide additional accommodation in the form of cottages surrounding the station yard. The firemen's families and their children are believed to have lived in these cottages, creating a close-knit community within the fire service. The fire station, with its red brick facade and tall chimneys, stands proudly on the corner of Evelyn Street and Manor Place, a testament to the vital role the fire service played in the lives of Londoners during this era. The fire engine, parked in front of the station, is a reminder of the essential service provided by the brave men and women who worked and lived at Deptford fire station.
