The "hook and ladder" was an early type of fire units known since late 1700s. It was a horse-drawn carriage which brought ladders and hooks to the fire place. Ladders were used for access to upper floors and the roof. "Hooks" were [[pike pole]]s used for pulling down and apart the burning construction.<ref> Larry Shapiro, "Hook and Ladders", [https://books.google.com/books?id=sG1_lIHoVFQC&pg=PA44 p.44]</ref>
