EDITORS COMMENTS
Perry Vale Fire Station, SE London: A Snapshot of Firefighting History (1901-1972) This evocative photograph captures the historic Perry Vale Fire Station, located at 199 Perry Vale in South East London. Built for the Metropolitan Fire Brigade in 1901, this red-brick fire station stood as a symbol of community protection and resilience for over six decades. The image showcases the fire station's grandeur, with its arched entrance, intricate brickwork, and the iconic fire hydrant and hose reel adorning the station's front yard. Firemen, dressed in their uniforms, are seen gathered outside, ready for their next call to duty. In 1965, the station transferred from the Metropolitan Fire Brigade to the Greater London Council. Despite the change in management, the station continued to serve the local community with unwavering dedication. However, with the opening of the new Forest Hill fire station in 1972, Perry Vale Fire Station was closed, marking the end of an era in London's firefighting history. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the essential role that fire stations and their brave personnel play in our communities. The image transports us back to the 1960s, a time when fire stations were the heart of local firefighting services. The red fire engine, the uniformed firemen, and the sense of camaraderie in the photograph all contribute to a powerful narrative of service, bravery, and community spirit.
