Date 1915
Description Our Women in War Time - ladies looking after army remounts
Details

Page from The Tatler reporting on the ladies of Berkshire who, under the 'generalship' of Mr Cecil Aldin, South Berks (famous sporting & animal artist as well as Master of the Foxhounds), were conditioning army remounts at one of the depots in Berkshire. Miss Iris Ford and her sister, 'who are very well known in London' are seen in the picture. All the work from stables to exercise is done by well-known hunting ladies under the supervision of a 'head lad' who was also a lady! The Tatler describes the work as done along 'very businesslike lines and is very hard, the hours being from 7 am to 6:30pm).
