EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from the archives of the London Fire Brigade, taken in 1942 during World War II, firefighters are seen constructing a new sub-fire station in the Bushey District 34 area. With the longer lulls in enemy bombing following the intense Blitz on London, fire service personnel were put to more productive use than just training and drills. The firefighters, with their varied backgrounds and skills, brought their expertise to the construction site. In this image, they are seen working diligently to build the new station, using their craft skills to erect the structure. The fire engine and appliance vehicles are parked nearby, ready to be used once the station is completed. The new sub-fire station, located on Rudolph Road, was an essential addition to the London Fire Brigade's network during the war. The construction of new stations, such as this one, allowed for better coverage and response times in the event of emergencies. The image captures the spirit of resilience and resourcefulness of the fire service personnel during wartime. Despite the challenges of the war, they continued to serve their communities, both as firefighters and as builders. The photograph is a testament to their dedication and the importance of their work in keeping London safe during the 1940s. This photograph is from the London Fire Brigade collection at Mary Evans Picture Library. It is a poignant reminder of the vital role the fire service played during World War II, and the ingenuity and adaptability of its personnel.
