EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1935, captures the intensity and bravery of the London Fire Brigade (LFB) as they battle a blaze at the Grand Hotel on the corner of Trafalgar Square and Northumberland Avenue in London. The Grand Hotel, a fifteen-story building, was a prominent structure in the area during the 1930s. In the image, firefighters in breathing apparatus are seen attending to the fire, their faces hidden behind masks to protect them from the smoke and heat. The fireman in the foreground, wearing a helmet and carrying a hose, prepares to turn on the delivery of his pump. The hoses, coiled and ready, lie at his feet, while the service avenue, a crucial element of the firefighting operation, is visible in the background. The London Fire Brigade, established in 1865, was responsible for protecting the city from fires and other emergencies. The use of breathing apparatus, a significant advancement in firefighting technology, was introduced in the early 1930s, allowing firefighters to enter burning buildings and fight fires more effectively and safely. The Grand Hotel fire, a notable event in London's firefighting history, highlights the dedication and skill of the LFB during the 1930s. The firemen, working tirelessly to contain the blaze, demonstrate the importance of quick response and effective equipment in saving lives and minimizing damage. This photograph is a testament to the bravery and professionalism of the London Fire Brigade during this era.
