This is a view taken the day after the fire, the brigade were still in attendance turning over and damping down. This is the same wall of the building shown in the previous photos which survived until the late 1980's when the site was cleared for the King's Acre development. The short fireman second right whose helmet looks somewhat too large, was one of the Green brothers. whose son/nephew William (Billy) Green had a builders business in the house that was once the 'Locomotive Inn' on Stoneham Street. Billy Green was in charge of our brigade during the war.
