EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a Beresford Stork light-trailer pump and its accompanying saloon car of the Auxiliary Fire Service (AFS) parked at the London Fire Brigade (LFB) Headquarters in Lambeth during the pre-war period of the late 1930s. The AFS was established in 1938 to supplement the full-time firefighting force in London in preparation for the imminent Second World War. The Beresford Stork pump was a popular choice for the AFS due to its compact size and maneuverability, making it ideal for navigating the narrow streets of London. The trailer-mounted pump could be easily towed behind the saloon car, allowing the AFS to quickly respond to fires and provide essential water supply. The image showcases the Beresford Stork pump's distinctive features, including its tall, curved ladder and the large Stork water pump mounted on the trailer. The saloon car, with its open doors, reveals the tools and equipment carried by the AFS firefighters. The AFS played a crucial role in the defense of London during the early stages of the war, providing valuable support to the LFB. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and dedication of the AFS volunteers who answered the call to protect their communities during a time of great uncertainty and danger.
