EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the aftermath of a direct hit on Sub-Fire Station 86W of the London Fire Brigade (LFB) during the intense Blitz bombing campaign in London, specifically on Cavendish Road in Balham, South West London, on the 5th of November, 1940. The image shows Auxiliary Fire Service (AFS) firemen meticulously sorting through the extensive rubble and wreckage, searching for salvageable materials amidst the devastation. The Cavendish Road School, which housed the sub-fire station, was a significant target during the raid, with the bomb leaving a large crater and extensive damage in its wake. The London Fire Brigade and AFS played a crucial role during the Blitz, responding to thousands of fires and providing essential services to the city's residents amidst the chaos and destruction of the war. This poignant photograph offers a glimpse into the resilience and determination of the emergency services personnel during this challenging time in history.
