- Prior to 1866, Wellclose Square had two fire stations. In the north (as I understand it) was the parish station of St George's in the East. This appeared to be in the centre of the square looking out. On the west side, looking east towards the centre, was the LFEE station, which must have been of some antiquity as it was previously an insurance station. On the formation of the MFB, the parish station was presumably closed and the MFB operated out of the LFEE station. Shortly afterwards, the LSC opened a station on the north side looking towards the centre
