EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the London Fire Brigade (LFB) team at Southwark Headquarters engaging in their weekly fire display for the public. Firefighting in the Victorian era comes to life as they demonstrate the use of a manual fire pump, harkening back to the days of horse-drawn fire engines. The team members, dressed in period uniforms, work together to fight a simulated fire, showcasing the intricacies of their historic equipment. The scene is set in the bustling streets of London, with the sound of the manual pump echoing through the air. The firefighters, with determination etched on their faces, work tirelessly to control the blaze. The hoses are in action, water jets shooting out to quench the flames. The 1930s-era fire engine, a relic of a bygone era, stands proudly nearby. The horse-drawn vehicle, a testament to the early days of firefighting, adds to the authenticity of the display.
