EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the historic LCC-MFB New Cross fire station, located at 266 Queens Road in SE14, Hatcham, London. Constructed by the London County Council in 1893, this grand Victorian building has stood as a symbol of protection and community service for over a century. With its distinctive red brick facade and ornate corner detailing, the fire station exudes an air of strength and resilience. The London County Council Fire Brigade, now known as the London Fire Brigade (LFB), has operated from this site since its inception, providing essential firefighting services to the local community. The station's large, open bay doors and tall, arched windows reveal the interior, where fire engines and equipment are housed, ready for deployment at a moment's notice.

This photograph is a testament to the enduring importance of fire stations in our communities, and the brave men and women who put their lives on the line to keep us safe. The intricate details of the fire station's architecture, from its intricately designed corner turret to the ornate brickwork, are beautifully captured in this image. The large, imposing building stands proudly on Queens Road, a reminder of the vital role that the London Fire Brigade has played in the history of this community. As we admire the grandeur of this historic fire station, we are reminded of the essential services that it provides and the bravery of the firefighters who work within its walls. This photograph is a treasure trove of history, showcasing the rich heritage of the London Fire Brigade and the importance of fire stations in our communities.
