- The Brigade first used a building in Market street (where the Tower street cinema was once situated) for their engine, then rented premises in Exeter street was used. It wasn’t until the construction of the new Town Hall in 1887 that a purpose built engine house was available. This is where the Brigade were to operate from for the next few decades until the advent of the motorised engine in 1936. |
