- Sefton Park Volunteer FB formed in about 1871 using a manual engine loaned by Liverpool, the engine house seems to have been on land forming part of the ‘Old Hall’ off Aigburth Rd. In January 1878 however the Liverpool Watch Committee noted ‘the manual engine on loan to Sefton Park is to be returned’.
