- The service was officially set up c1874, and by 1890 had 28 volunteers. However prior to this, as early as 1833 there are records stating that a new ‘engine house’ was built, presumably for a fire engine, and we know that in 1852 there was such a building located behind the High Street, around where the Arcade stands today |
