EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the historic Islington Fire Station on Upper Street in North London, which was established in 1900 by the London County Council for the Metropolitan Fire Brigade. The red brick building, a prominent feature of the Upper Street landscape for nearly a century, was demolished in 1993 to make way for a modern replacement. In this image, one of the two fire engines allocated to the station can be seen, a Dennis pump ladder from the 1980s. The Dennis engine, with its distinctive red color and ladder extended, symbolizes the vital role of the fire service in protecting the community. The 1980s were a pivotal decade for firefighting technology, and the Dennis pump ladder was a common sight in fire stations across the city. This photograph, taken in 1985, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the important work of the London Fire Brigade and the evolution of firefighting vehicles. The image is courtesy of the London Fire Brigade and Mary Evans Picture Library.
