EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the London Fire Brigade's (LFB) annual review in Lambeth, showcasing a proud display of tradition and heritage. The scene is set with the iconic Victorian Shand Mason horse-drawn steam fire pumps at the forefront. The crew members, dressed in period attire, including brass helmets, exude a sense of history and nostalgia. The steam-powered appliance, a relic from the 1950s, adds to the old-world charm of the event. The horses, harnessed and ready, complete the picture of an era long past. The LFB's headquarters in Lambeth played host to these regular displays, providing an opportunity for the public to witness the Brigade's rich history and the evolution of firefighting techniques. The steam pump, with its intricate design and impressive size, stands in stark contrast to the modern fire appliances of today. This photograph transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past and the important role that horse-drawn steam pumps played in the London Fire Brigade's storied history.
