North Gate And Fire Station 1896
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

My great grandfather was Enoch Williams at one time Superintendent of the Fire Station at 1 High Street. He went to Bridgnorth from Gt Whitley in 1894. I have photos of the fire crew of that time - horses and carriage. Horses were kept in a field down Love Lane! Enoch and my grandmother Rebecca had many children and lived above the fire station. My grandfather William Williams had the shop to the right of this picture from 1908. It is now Wetherspoons pub. The Builders' Merchant, William Williams still operates in The Innage.
