Fire in All Saints' Church, at Manchester, 1850. Creator: Unknown.

Fire in All Saints' Church, at Manchester, 1850. '...seven fire engines...were stationed in the yard attached to the church; four of them, the Vesta, Neptune, Mersey, and Waterwitch, were placed at the north-west or tower end of the building; the branch from the latter being taken up into the tower, which was, at one time, in imminent danger. The Thames, Niagara, and Ganges engines were situated at the south-east end of the church. A plentiful supply of water having been obtained, the men were dispersed over the various parts of the building. Jets were placed at the four corners of the interior; and it is to this judicious arrangement that the preservation of the galleries and a part of the organ are to be attributed...Through the unremitting exertions of the firemen, the tower, with a great portion of the gallery, and some parts of the organ and pulpit, are saved...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
