Home to the UK's largest refinery, Fawley is among the most at-risk
parts of the country for petrochemical fires. Its fire service is
vital to the area's infrastructure and its firefighters must always
be prepared. For the first time, the story of this fire station and
of the Waterside's private and military fire brigades is told. From
establishment in the early twentieth century, through the
development of the fire engine and firefighting techniques, to
combating modern-day terrorist threats, Fawley's firefighters have
witnessed it all. This book looks at how the station and its crew,
now reduced from full- to part-time staffing, have evolved in the
face of new dangers and challenges.
