| Notes / History | The fire fighting team from Pascall's sweet factory, near Streatham Road, Mitcham. The creation of private brigades was not unusual, especially during the build-up to war. This company's precautions were understandable, given that the original Blackfriars factory was destroyed by fire in 1897. Despite its private status, the Pascall's brigade was also available for emergency service in Mitcham |
