1/1st Welsh (How) Brigade – Cambridge – 1915

The Brigade arrived in Cambridge shortly before Christmas 1914 and remained there until early May 1915. During that time the Division was inspected by the King and a number of drafts of new recruits joined the Brigade from the Depot in Swansea.

Amongst those drafts was 953, Gnr RJ Williams who bought his camera and captures a range of pictures of the 2nd Battery.
