EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the quiet moment of respite for two soldiers, 21017 Private P.J. Hill of D Company, 20th Battalion, The County of London Regiment, in the Southern Guard Room at Alexandra Palace on 8th November 1895. The soldiers are shown seated by a roaring fire, their weary faces illuminated by the flickering flames. The image offers a poignant glimpse into the daily life of these soldiers during their training, away from the battlefields of the First World War. Private Hill, who studied at the Lambeth School of Art located at St. Oswalds Place, Upper Kennington Lane, can be seen wearing the distinctive uniform of the County of London Regiment. The soldiers' worn expressions and the rustic surroundings suggest the long hours of drilling and physical training they endured. Alexandra Palace, a popular recreational destination in London, served as a training ground for various military regiments during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Southern Guard Room, with its large fireplace and wooden benches, offered a place of warmth and rest for the soldiers during their rigorous training sessions. This photograph, taken over a century ago, offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of military life during the early years of the 20th century. The image is a testament to the resilience and determination of the soldiers who served in the 1st Great Military Regiments, such as the County of London Regiment, during the First World War.
