EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this photograph of Kensington Fire Station, located in Old Court Place near Kensington Church Street, SW London. This image offers a unique glimpse into the past of the London Fire Brigade (LFB), showcasing the station's appliance room as it once was. The horses, the last remaining ones for the Brigade, are seen waiting patiently in their stalls, while the fire engines stand ready for the next call. In the corner, the watchroom houses a fireman, seated at the desk, keeping a watchful eye over the station. This photograph offers a rare insight into the traditional methods of firefighting that were still in use at the beginning of the 20th century. The horse-drawn turntable ladder, the last of its kind in the Brigade, is a testament to the evolution of firefighting equipment. The appliance room, with its vehicles and bays, sheds, and stalls, presents a scene of organized readiness and efficiency. The London Fire Brigade's history is rich and diverse, and this photograph offers a tangible connection to that past. The horses, the engines, and the watchroom all serve as reminders of the dedication and hard work that went into ensuring the safety of Londoners in the early 1900s. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of firefighting or the London Fire Brigade.
