EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken in 1962, London Fire Brigade firefighters can be seen courageously tackling a serious house fire in the fashionable Notting Hill area of West London. The terraced Georgian house, located on Clarendon Road in the Clarendon Crescent area, is engulfed in thick, choking smoke, its upper floors ablaze. The firefighters are making their way up the 50-foot wheeled escape ladder, a vital piece of equipment that allows them to gain access to the upper floors of the burning building. Two hose lines have already been deployed through the front door, and one firefighter is at work from the ladder, directing the water stream towards the heart of the blaze. The image captures the intensity and danger of the situation, with the firemen's faces obscured by their breathing apparatus, their uniforms stained with soot and sweat. The smoke billows out of the windows, casting an eerie glow over the scene. The terraced house, a common feature of Notting Hill's housing stock, stands as a stark reminder of the destructive power of fire. The London Fire Brigade, established in 1865, has a long and proud history of providing essential firefighting services to the people of London. This photograph, taken during the 1960s, is a testament to the bravery and dedication of the firefighters who risked their lives to protect their community from the ravages of fire. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer for the London County Council (LCC) and now part of the Mary Evans Picture Library collection, is a poignant reminder of the vital role that firefighters play in keeping our communities safe.
