EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic MFB North Kensington fire station, located at 58 Faraday Road in West London. Established in 1882, this fire station was one of the latter stations built by the Metropolitan Fire Brigade (MFB) prior to the creation of the London County Council in 1889 and the subsequent name change of the MFB to the London Fire Brigade. The red brick building, with its distinctive round tower and ornate detailing, served as a vital community hub for firefighting services in North Kensington for over a century. The station's central location made it easily accessible to respond to emergencies in the densely populated area. The image showcases the fire station's impressive tower, which served as a lookout point for firefighters to survey the surrounding area and identify potential fires. The station's service vehicles, including fire engines and hose carts, are visible in the foreground, ready for action. Despite its rich history, the North Kensington fire station closed its doors in 1986, with operations moving to a new station in Ladbroke Grove. Today, this historic building stands as a reminder of the important role the fire brigade played in the community and the vital services they continue to provide to Londoners. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the architecture, history, and traditions of London's firefighting heritage.
