Common questions
City of London fire station FAQs
How many fire stations are in City of London?
The government fire-stations dataset lists 1 operational station with published addresses in City of London at the 31 December 2025 snapshot. Appliances from other boroughs may also attend incidents here.
Will the nearest fire station always attend?
No. London Fire Brigade mobilises resources according to the incident and appliance availability. Borough boundaries and straight-line distance do not determine which crew will attend.
Do response figures show whether my building is safe?
No. Mobilisation and attendance records describe emergency-service activity. They do not assess a building’s fire precautions, management or legal compliance.
When should I call a fire station?
Call 999 in an emergency. For non-emergency advice, use London Fire Brigade’s official contact and borough community pages rather than attending a station without an appointment.
