EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the Headquarters of the London Fire Brigade in 1902. The imposing building, located on Southwark Bridge Road, stands proudly in the background, its red brick facade adorned with intricate detailing. Two horse-drawn fire engines make their way down the cobblestone road, their gleaming metal bodies reflecting the sunlight. The horses, powerful and strong, pull the engines with an air of determination, their harnesses jingling with each step. The pavements on either side of the road are filled with people, their Edwardian attire adding to the historical charm of the scene. Men in fire brigade uniforms, complete with helmets and leather boots, stand watchfully as their colleagues maneuver the engines through the busy streets. Passersby, dressed in their Sunday best, pause to watch the spectacle unfold, some even taking a moment to capture the moment on film. The horse-drawn fire engines, a common sight on the streets of London during this era, were the backbone of the London Fire Brigade's fleet. These engines, with their powerful draft horses and long hoses, were the first line of defense against the city's frequent fires. The London Fire Brigade, established in 1865, had its headquarters in this building until 1940, when it moved to its current location in Dowgate Road. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a glimpse into the daily life of Londoners during the early 20th century. The horses, the uniforms, the people, and the fire engines all come together to create a scene that is both historical and captivating.
