EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and historical significance of Kentish Town Fire Station, which once stood proudly at Fortress Walk in North West London. Built in 1885, this magnificent Victorian edifice was a vital part of the London County Council's Metropolitan Fire Brigade (LCC-MFB) network, serving the community of Kentish Town and its surrounding areas for nearly a century. The fire station's distinctive round tower, adorned with intricate stonework and large arched windows, is a testament to the architectural elegance of the 1890s. The large building, with its red brick façade and ornate detailing, exudes a sense of strength and resilience, reflecting the essential role of the fire service in protecting the lives and property of Londoners. Sadly, the Kentish Town Fire Station was closed in 1972, and subsequently demolished, making way for the current fire station. This photograph, taken in the 1890s, offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing an invaluable record of a bygone era. The image invites us to reflect on the rich history of the London Fire Brigade and the important role it continues to play in safeguarding the city of London.
