LCC- MFB Notting Hill fire station, West London

Notting Hill fire station (A10) was built in 1868 by the Metropolitan Fire Brigade (MFB), located at 83 Ladbroke Road. The previous year, escape ladders were put under the control of the MFB who took over this role from the Royal Society for the Preservation of Life from Fire. Here the escape ladder is seen by the Fire lantern, although the MFB now carried these ladders on horse drawn escape carts. The station closed in 1915 and was converted to a private residence

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the late 1890s, showcases the Notting Hill fire station (A10) located at 83 Ladbroke Road in West London. Established in 1868 by the Metropolitan Fire Brigade (MFB), this historic building was one of the first fire stations in London to house escape ladders. Prior to this, the Royal Society for the Preservation of Life from Fire had been responsible for the provision and control of these essential safety devices. In this image, an escape ladder is prominently displayed next to a fire lantern, a common tool used by firefighters during the Victorian era. However, it's important to note that the MFB had begun carrying escape ladders on horse-drawn carts by this time. The station, a fine example of late-19th-century architecture, served the community for over 50 years before it closed in 1915 and was later converted into a private residence. The Metropolitan Fire Brigade, a precursor to the modern-day London Fire Brigade, played a crucial role in firefighting and safety in London during the late 1800s and early 1900s. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the dedication and commitment of the MFB to protecting the people of London from fire hazards. This photograph is part of the extensive collection of historical images at Mary Evans Picture Library, providing valuable insights into the rich history of London and its firefighting services.
