EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative group photograph captures the courage and camaraderie of the firefighters of the London County Council Fire Brigade (LCC-LFB) in the 1910s. The image shows a group of firemen, all dressed in their distinctive uniforms, gathered in front of their fire station. The men wear heavy, dark suits with white collars and red helmets, each holding a long, leather fire hose. The fire station is located on a cobblestone street, with the sound of clattering horse hooves and the scent of smoke in the air. The LCC-LFB was established in 1865 and was responsible for firefighting in the County of London until the London Fire Brigade was created in 1965. Firefighting in the early 20th century was a dangerous and physically demanding job, and these brave men put their lives on the line every day to protect their community. The fire station served as a hub of activity, with crews responding to emergencies around the clock. The firemen in this photograph appear focused and determined, ready to spring into action at a moment's notice. The sense of unity and teamwork is palpable, as the men stand shoulder to shoulder, their gazes fixed on the camera. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the LCC-LFB fire station and the men who worked there. It is a reminder of the sacrifices made by firefighters throughout history and the essential role they play in keeping our communities safe.
