A SECRET 60-year-old fire station – complete with firefighting equipment and uniforms – has been discovered in the bowels of a Black Country factory.
Staff at shopfitting company The Alan Nuttall Partnership have carried out a thorough investigation of the hidden fire base.
It had been tucked away at the large Dudley factory which has been the company’s home since 1986.
The room contained perfectly preserved uniforms, with the names of the wearers chalked above them. Scrawled names include I Silk, W Price and A Round.
Documents suggest the items date back to the early 1950s, when the local Co-op, which had its own fire brigade, operated from the building.
