The Hampden Meadows Volunteer Fire Company started back in 1920 in Beaver's
garage on New Meadow Road with a truck the members built on a Cadillac
frame.
 
Today,
Station 4 and its land on Sowams Road is owned by the HMVFC, Inc. while
the town provides the vehicle, engine 4, and all fire fighting equipment.
Engine 4 responds to all fires within Hampden meadows along with any working
fire within the town of Barrington under the direction of the Barrington
Fire Chief.
The
Hampden Meadows Volunteer Fire Company is located at 168 Sowams Road in
Barrington Rhode Island. Also referred to as Station 4, HMVFC operates
with one engine company (engine 4) and approximately 19 active firefighters.
Our primary engine, engine 4, is a 1994 Pierce Pumper equipped to protect
the town of Barrington and surrounding communities. |
