EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the hustle and bustle of London's Tooley Street Fire Station in the 1920s. Built in 1879, the red-brick building at 165 Tooley Street was home to the London Fire Brigade's crews and their families until 1928, when the new Dockhead station was opened. In this image, firefighters are seen preparing for an emergency response, with a Dennis pump and pump escape at the ready. The wheeled appliances were essential tools for firefighting in the early 20th century, allowing crews to quickly respond to fires and navigate the narrow streets of the city. A child peeks out of a first-floor window, adding a sense of domesticity to the scene. The firemen lived on-site, making the station not only a place of work but also a community. This historic building, which still stands in Tooley Street today, is a testament to the bravery and dedication of the firefighters who served there in the 1920s. The image provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the firefighting equipment and the daily life of the fire station during this era.
