Fire Station, With Flats For Fire Officers Above

This fire station, built in 1912, features flats for fire officers above. It is a red brick building with three storeys, an attic, and a basement, comprising six bays in a somewhat irregular layout. The high-pitched, gable-ended tiled roof has a lower fringe of shallower pitch that continues around the gable ends, which are tile-hung. There are five large, tile-hung, gabled dormers that are almost touching, with each dormer having a slightly different window arrangement. The building is adorned with tall, rectangular brick chimneys.

The front of the building is varied, with bays one, five, and six featuring shallow, canted, three-window oriel bays that extend through the first and second floors. Below these, bay one has two one-light windows, bay five has a three-light window, and bay six has a four-light window. Bays two and four have three-window canted bays that extend the full height of the building, abutting bay three, which is slightly forward of the main wall plane and features three arcaded recesses through the first and second floors, each containing one window.

On the ground floor, there are two large entrances for fire engines, framed by stone jambs and topped with a tiled hood. These entrances encroach on the inner sides of the canted bays, which are reduced to two windows on the ground floor. There is also one plain door in the second bay from the left. The left basement windows are small and square with cambered relieving arches above, while the right basement windows are lunettes. Most ground floor windows have lintels made of layered tiles and cambered relieving arches, and all are casements with horizontal bars. The building was designed by the ICC Architects' Department, Fire Brigade Branch, including architects Owen Fleming, C.C. Winmill, and W.E. Brooks.
