Churches in London Show Common Stone Vessels and Fire Alerts
Julian Ralph notes many London churches are stone with iron fences and granite posts. Epistles reveal fire ladders and carts stored near walls, churches doubling as fire stations, red lanterns marking Fire Station areas, and public notices posting tax ratings licenses and army recruitment. He compares this to British use of churches as garrisons and prisons in colonial times.
