EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, London Fire Brigade firefighters are seen in action as they tackle a blaze at St Silas Vicarage on Inverton Road in Peckham, London SE15, in 2005. The historic vicarage, located in the heart of the community, had fallen victim to a devastating fire, leaving the building in ruins. The firefighters are shown working diligently to extinguish the flames, utilizing a hydraulic platform to access the upper levels of the vicarage. The platform, a vital piece of firefighting equipment, allows the firefighters to reach great heights and effectively combat the fire from above. The scene is chaotic, with multiple fire engines, hoses, and jets in use, as well as other emergency vehicles lining the road. The air is thick with smoke, and the sound of water being pumped and fire alarms blaring fill the air. Despite the damage and destruction, the firefighters remain focused and determined, working together to save what they can and prevent the fire from spreading to nearby buildings. The community watches on in concern, offering support and gratitude to the brave men and women of the London Fire Brigade. The vicarage, once a beautiful and important part of the community, now stands as a reminder of the destructive power of fire and the vital role that firefighters play in protecting us from harm. This photograph is a testament to the heroism and dedication of the London Fire Brigade and the essential service they provide.
