EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the early 1910s, showcases a Hatfield motorised pump escape belonging to the London Fire Brigade. The London Fire Brigade, established in 1865, was the first organized firefighting force in the city. Prior to the installation of bells on fire engines in 1903, firemen relied on the seafaring call of "Hi-ya-hi" to warn other traffic as they clung to the engines while racing through the streets of London. This particular appliance is a motorised pump escape, a vehicle designed for quick evacuation from a burning building. The integral pump on the appliance allowed firefighters to fight fires both inside and outside the structure. The crew, dressed in their full protective gear, can be seen preparing to leave the vehicle, ensuring they are equipped with their tools and hoses. The vehicle, with its large wheels and ladder, is a testament to the advanced technology of the time. The wheeled appliance enabled the fire brigade to respond more efficiently to emergencies, providing both firefighting capabilities and a means of transportation. The London Fire Brigade's fleet of motorised appliances revolutionized the way fires were fought and allowed for faster response times. This photograph captures a moment in time during the Edwardian era, when London's firefighting force was transitioning from horse-drawn carriages to motorized vehicles. The image offers a unique glimpse into the history of firefighting in London and the evolution of the London Fire Brigade.
