c. 1910 ?

Exeter Cathedral School Cadet Force.

Postcard. No date on the card and no writing or stamp on the back.

The style of uniform suggests a period near to the beginning of the First World War.

Location of where the photograph was taken is uncertain. It could be the rear of the pre-1940s school on the north side of the Cathedral Close, with the rear of Bedford Circus being the buildings shown in the upper half of the photograph.

Similar photograph shown below.

If you have any more information please do let me know (m.j.dobson@ex.ac.uk).
