EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the George Garland Collection, we are transported back to August 1936, witnessing a remarkable sight of the Royal Scots riding up Duncton Hill. The image captures a moment in history when these brave cavalry troops embarked on manoeuvres near Petworth in West Sussex. Dressed immaculately in their distinctive uniforms and donning their regimental caps, the soldiers form an impressive line as they ascend the rural hillside. The rolling countryside serves as a picturesque backdrop for this display of military prowess. The grey horses, meticulously groomed and adorned with saddles and bridles, exude strength and elegance as they carry their riders effortlessly up the slope. Their hooves rhythmically pound against the earth, creating a symphony that echoes through time. A solitary telegraph pole stands tall amidst this idyllic scene, serving as a reminder of modern communication methods during those times. It is fascinating to witness how technology intertwines with tradition in this snapshot from yesteryears. This photograph not only showcases the skillful horsemanship of these troops but also evokes feelings of pride and admiration for all those who have served their country throughout history. It is an enduring testament to bravery and dedication that resonates even today. Preserved by the West Sussex Record Office under reference number Garland N13375, this extraordinary print offers us a glimpse into our past while honoring those who have fought valiantly for our freedom.
