Members of the public were free to tour the station from 10am until 4pm, during which time there was a bouncy castle for the little ones, drill tower demonstrations by serving firefighters, displays of kit and equipment from throughout the service’s history and a range of resources covering all elements of fire safety.

Vintage fire engines were also a big part of the event, with vehicles used by firefighters from decades past proving a hit with guests and residents alike.
