A Grade II listed building designed by W. E. Riley (1852-1937). It was decommissioned in the early 21st century, after a new fire station opened to the north, at 190 Shepherds Bush Road. It was converted into a public house called 'The Old Fire Station', and is now (2018) a branch of the restaurant chain Wagamama. This photograph from Henrietta Startup's Pinterst page shows it as it was before closure.
