Triumph Road - Fire Station

Photograph donated by Barbara Searcy


 Given the number of vehicles and people present, this war-time photograph would appear to show a massed gathering of all those involved in Nottingham's Fire Service.  Triumph Road is just visible immediately in front of the gasometer and if you look really carefully you should be able to spot a pedestrian, a cyclist and at least 2 small children making their way along the road
.  Note that the gasometer appears to have been painted different colours to help camouflage it from the enemy.
