Company HISTORY

Lower Southampton Fire Department is rich in history, with both heartache and splendor. Started in 1931 by a group of concerned citizens. Little money was available nearly everything was donated by members and their families and work on the firehouse was completed by the firefighters themselves. During the passing years we grew extensively.

In 1960 the department split, creating the Trevose Heights Rescue Squad.

On September 24, 1974 a fire alarm was sounded and reported to be the Feasterville Fire Station. The fire turned out to be the Trevose Heights Fire Station. The fire burned out of control for two hours, requiring the assistance of 12 neighboring fire departments and rescue squads. The evening of September 14, 1974 was marked by the return of over 400 Volunteer Fire Fighters and Rescue Squad personnel, who enabled us to erect a temporary station out of the remains of the old station.

            Following the fire a new station was erected, which remains our home to this day.

           

Lower Southampton Fire Department has remained an entirely volunteer Department, proudly serving our community.
