LCC-LFB Wapping fire station, East London
Wapping fire station was only operational for 15 years. Located in Red Lion Street, Tench Street E1, it was opened in 1905. However, the adoption of motorised fire engines by the LFB led to a reduction in the number of stations required. A report produced in 1920 recommended the closure of 15 stations, including Wapping
