EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment in history when the Tower of London, an iconic symbol of British strength and sovereignty, became a temporary barracks for the Territorial Force horses during the early days of World War I. Dated August 1914, the image shows a line of well-groomed horses, their coats glistening in the sunlight, standing proudly in the moat that surrounds the historic fortress. The Territorial Force, a part-time military reserve, was mobilized to support the regular army in the impending conflict. The horses, essential for transportation and logistics in the war effort, were brought to the Tower of London to be housed and trained. The moat, usually filled with water, was drained and transformed into a makeshift stable, providing shelter for these animals that would soon be deployed to the battlefields of Europe. The photograph offers a poignant reminder of the crucial role these animals played in the war, and the unique circumstances that led to the Tower of London serving as a temporary home for them. The image also underscores the sense of urgency and preparation that gripped the nation as the war loomed on the horizon. The photograph, taken by the Illustrated London News Ltd and sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a testament to the rich historical record that exists from this period. It provides a glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse into the daily life of the soldiers and their animals during the early days of World War I.
