| Description: | Riverside Timber Yard Blaze - Hero-Firemen, in an inferno of heat, fight the flames unceasingly for nearly 2 days." Kingston, Surrey (?). Various shots of the smoking timber yard - quite difficult to make out in amid the smoke! Firemen hold hoses from Kingston Bridge over the burning yard. "Famous old Kingston Bridge was seriously damaged by heat." Panning L/S of the smoking timber yard and Kingston Bridge - it doesn't look too damaged from this angle but traffic and pedestrians are on the far side of the bridge from the blaze. | |
