Old photograph of the Fire Station in Russell Street off Orkney Street in Govan, Glasgow, Scotland. The fire station was located at the rear of Govan Town Hall, which was built in Albert Street, subsequently renamed Orkney Street, in 1867 and contained all the council offices. The fire and police services remained in the old building when the new Town Hall opened in Summerstown Road in 1899. By 1905 the Govan brigade also operated from a sub station at Plantation.
