EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and historical significance of LCC-LFB Burdett Road fire station, located at 141 Burdett Road in the East End of London. Built by the London County Council in the early 1900s, this Victorian fire station served the community of Poplar from its inception until its closure in 1968. The imposing red-brick building, with its tall, corner chimney and ornate detailing, stands as a testament to the importance of fire safety and emergency services in the city's history. The London County Council Fire Brigade (LCC-LFB) was a precursor to the present-day London Fire Brigade, and this station was one of many established to protect the growing urban population from the ever-present threat of fire. The fire station's closure marked the end of an era, as the new Poplar fire station took over its duties. Today, this historic building remains a cherished piece of local history, a reminder of the vital role that fire services have played in shaping the city's landscape and safeguarding its people.
