We are located at 45 Main St., Newtown, CT. Newtown is in northern Fairfield County with a population of approximately 27,000, covering 64 square miles. Newtown Hook and Ladder is one of five independent fire companies providing fire protection and advanced rescue to the town of Newtown.
Newtown Hook and Ladder is the oldest fire department in the town, with its beginnings in the early 1800's, but no serious organization until 1883, when it purchased its first apparatus and a state charter was granted.
We are an all-volunteer fire department and as officers of the department we are extremely proud of its firefighters, who are extremely dedicated. Department personnel are from all walks of life, from students to corporate leaders, all concerned residents of the community, just like you. |
