This photograph, titled "Wimbledon New Fire Station, back view - Surrey Comet, Christmas Number 1904," offers a glimpse into the rich history of Wimbledon, Surrey, through the image of its New Fire Station. The photograph, taken from the back, reveals the impressive architectural design of the building, which was a testament to the progress and development of the community during the early 1900s. The red brick facade, adorned with intricate details and ornate features, stands as a symbol of the firefighters' dedication and the community's commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of its residents.
