Scope note
Refers to relatively small buildings or sheds housing the tools for firefighting. Fire hoses, buckets, and ladders may be stored in fire hose houses. Examples are historical structures that were part of a neighborhood system of firefighting in which responsibility was placed on the individual districts of a city. For more modern structures, housing fire engines and often quarters for firemen, use "fire stations."
