Newspaper - LYDIA CHANCELLOR COLLECTION: 1899 - 1977 AND STILL THE HEART OF FIRE FIGHTING
A Bendigo Advertiser newspaper article titled '1899 - 1977 - and still the heart of fire fighting - Bendigo Fire Station classified by the National Trust by Amy Huxtable.' This article is an historical account of the history of the Bendigo Fire Station since the foundation stone was laid in View Street on September 23, 1898 by the Hon. J. S. Sternberg, MLC. Prior to that from the 1850s fire fighting involved a bucket and a horse. With the laying of the foundation stone came the merger of the three central brigades to become one strong unit under one control. There are some historical photos included in the article. Note the first motorised fire-fighting vehicle - the Horace Lansell, acquired in 1912. 25/06/77.essential services, firefighting, history, lydia chancellor collection, collection, fire, fire fighting, organisation, bendigo fire station, national trust, capital theatre, history, amy huxtable, trophies, machinery, safety -
