    Happy 4000th!

    In megazoom, I can read that the huge carts opposite belong to Thomas White & Co.

    Since absorbed by the House of Fraser department stores.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The trees are marked on the 25", weak evidence we are before 1900.
  • Niall McAuley said:
    The barracks dates from 1891. I see scaffolding and an unfinished roof.
  • National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
    Niall McAuley Yes, when I saw Aldershot on the carts, I thought for a moment that Robert French had gone "out foreign" for once!
  • John Spooner said:
    Thomas White & Co had their fingers in several pies. As well as department stores, they wer estate agents "Have all the best houses available on their Register, furnished and unfurnished, in immediate vicinity of the Aldershot Comamand Barracks" (Aldershot News - Friday 12 January 1917). As well as Aldershot they had a branch in Farnborough (or more accurately North Camp, between Aldershot and Farnborough). Their premises there were on Lynchford Road, which coincidentally was my great-grandfather's address in 1886-1889.

Charge of the Heavy Cavalry Brigade. 25th Octr. 1854.
