Amazing night at Household Cavalry Museum to launch the Price of War Symposium. Thank you for supporting @RHChelsea and @TheHCF by purchasing Pomp & Circumstance. It is a book about what we can and must accomplish. Despite the doom merchants, we might be the best placed nation to weather the storms ahead.

@DigWaterloo @HCavMuseum @railway200 Want more Waterloo? 💂

Take a scenic two-mile stroll from London Waterloo station to Apsley House at Hyde Park Corner, packed with Napoleonic landmarks — monuments, museums, and historic pubs.

We've put together a handy walking guide to help you explore: https://t.co/83RtwYAm6n

Fascinating to join the @LM_Westminster on a tour of the Household Cavalry Museum 🐴

So much history and pageantry right on our doorsteps. Look forward to seeing how we can work together to share this history with Westminster schools and beyond.

[Household Cavalry Museum @HCavMuseum]

It was a pleasure to welcome you to our museum @LM_Westminster and @ormsby_ellie and showcase the work we do to support @HCav1660 history and heritage.

We look forward to further working with @CityWestminster community

[The Lord Mayor of Westminster @LM_Westminster]

Westminster has many connections with @BritishArmy so a pleasure to visit the @HCav1660 museum with @CityWestminster Cllrs @ormsby_ellie & Rachael Robathan. This regiment is a fighting unit along with its ceremonial duties. Always impressive to see the changing of the Guard!
