About
The London Fire Brigade Museum covers the history of firefighting from the Great Fire of London onwards, holding over 20,000 items including leather hoses and paintings that chart people, innovations, and milestones in London firefighting.
Firefighting history and uniforms appeal to young children aged 4-8 interested in fire engines and emergency services. The museum holds 20,000+ items, though only some are displayed. Ground floor is accessible; upper exhibitions are via stairs. Small but focused and interesting for fire service enthusiasts.
