Yes, its situated in High Road, Byfleet, Surrey. It's said to have been built back in 1885 and finally closed in 1963 so thats quiet staggering when you think thats 160 years, and its of course still standing.

160 YEARS? 1885 to 1963 is 78 years. 1885 to 2016 is 131 years.

I believe that New York City has a few fire stations still in daily use which were originally built in the 1880s. Some of the current apparatus are a very tight fit!
