Hi!
just wondering if anyone has any older pictures of merseysides fire stations? its a bit of an interest for me - mostly for the differing architecture but also the sheer historical aspect - not much was recorded!#

Funny you should say that Barry as I have just met the Merseyside Archivist who has given me all sorts of information on my Grandfather who was a Fire Bobby from 1919. He is a wealth of information, has wrote a book on the very subject, has "old" photos and film from the 40's ! His name is Simon Ryan and he does talks with accompanying articles / photo's etc.
I believe his next one is at
"Service HQ", Bridle Rd at 18:30 on Thur 27 Mar.
I'm sure if you email him, he will gladly invite you and anyone else interested along. He has passed on to me info and photo's of Hatton Garden and Old Swan Fire Stations. If you want his email address, PM me and I'll forward it to you, Martin.
