LCC-LFB Knightsbridge fire station stables

Opened on 27 June 1907, Knightsbridge fire station was located at 16 Basil Street. Horses would remain in use in the London Fire Brigade until 1921, although motorised fire engines were being introduced into the service in increasing numbers. Coachmen were designated firemen responsible for driving the horse drawn engines and the horses were stabled at the fire station in stalls within or adjacent to the engine room
