Marching Grenadiers with Band

Britain's bearskins on parade

Non-Fiction 1900 1 mins

Overview

Hup, two, three, four… Before the camera, beplumed officers are followed by a march-past of bearskinned bandsmen, troops and foot guards. The film seems to have been shot in a park, or maybe the grounds of a Royal residence. Perhaps you can identify this location? This material is thought to be part of Alfred J West's early film series Our Army.
