EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the turnout of fire appliances and crew outside a London fire station in the 1930s. The scene on the forecourt of the fire station is a bustling hive of activity, with several fire engines and vehicles readied for action. The fire appliances, adorned with the distinctive London Fire Brigade (LFB) insignia, are positioned in a neat row, their hoses coiled and ready to be unraveled. The firefighters, dressed in their iconic uniforms, are seen checking their equipment and preparing to climb aboard their vehicles. The foreground is filled with the hustle and bustle of the fire station, with shops and buildings lining the street beyond providing a sense of the urban setting. The turnout of fire appliances and crew outside the station was a common sight in London during the 1930s, as the LFB worked tirelessly to protect the city from the threat of fire. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a unique insight into the daily routine of the London Fire Brigade during this era.
