Tower Hamlet Rifles
Hi All,
just a couple pics from a recent flying visit to London, These were in the Tower of London. If anyone had any doubts as to the excellence of Victorian badges, this should solve that problem. Just beautiful Cheers, Tim |

For the record.
The badge shown in the first post above and the HP shown at the left in post #3 are, as the designation on the badges says, of the Queen's Own Light Infantry. A militia regiment of the Tower Hamlets. These two badges are thus not of any of the Tower Tower Hamlets Rifle Volunteer Corps (or in short: Tower Hamlets Rifles), but the others in post #3 are.
