The post ww2 Isle of Ely Fire Service was formed in 1948 after the N.F.S ( National Fire Service 1941 to 1947 ) handed back fire control to regional county & county borough fire brigades. With 9 fire stations covering 354 square miles of area it merged with Cambridgeshire Fire Brigade in 1965 to become Cambridgeshire & Isle of Ely Fire Service, lasting until 1974. In 1974 the Cambridgeshire Fire & Rescue Service became its title & was the first of a new generation of Fire & Rescue Services to take the title.
