1938, on the A33, not far from the Hamlet of Woodmancott, we find a Lewis Gun manned by two Guardsmen, overlooked by a Sergeant next to a Universal Carrier.
Colour by Dan Steele
The original image caption suggests these are Scots Guards, but the Sergeants cap suggests that he is a member of the Coldstream Guards. The Gunner manning the Lewis Gun is wearing a traditional Scottish cap called a Glengarry.

The road signs give us some great clues about the location, the A33 still the traces of a junction leading to Woodmancott today.
