Canal Cavalrymen Crawley Worth
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time during the early 1900s, as WW1 cavalrymen take a break from their training exercises near the picturesque canal in Worth, Crawley, Sussex, England. The serene setting of the canal, with its calm waters reflecting the surrounding trees, provides a stark contrast to the tense and uncertain atmosphere of the impending war. The cavalrymen, dressed in their full regalia, are seen engaged in various activities, from mending their saddles to sharing a joke with their comrades. The horses, too, seem at ease, their ears pricked forward as they gaze at the scene around them. This image offers a glimpse into the daily life of these soldiers, who would soon be deployed to the battlefields of Europe, and serves as a poignant reminder of the human side of war. The photograph, taken in the 1910s, is a testament to the rich historical heritage of Sussex and the important role it played in the military history of the UK.
