  • Extract from the War Diary of the 12Th Lancers (Crown Copyright: National Archives)
    Extract from the war diary of the 12th Lancers (Crown Copyright: National Archives) The transcription below appears as an appendix in the 12th Lancers’ war diary in August 1914. The appendix isn’t dated nor is there any indication of who wrote it. The appendix describes the Regiment’s successful attack on German cavalry near the village of Moy de L’Aisne, France on 28 August 1914. At 3.a.m., on the morning of the 28th August, 1914, the 12th Royal Lancers was hurriedly turned out from its bivouac at Bernot, and rendezvoused on some high ground to the S.W. of St. Quentin with the rest of the 5th Cavalry Brigade, where it halted for about half an hour, allowing time to draw its rations which had been hurriedly sent up in lorries by the zealous officer in charge. Moving off again towards St.Quentin, it halted under cover, and two officers patrols were despatched to Neuville and Mesnil St Laurent. These patrols, on their return, reported that there was no sign of the enemy, and that they had been unable to obtain any news of them from the inhabitants. About 10.30 a.m., orders were received from Brigade Headquarters that the Regiment was to go into Brigade Reserve for the day at Moy on the Oise. This was welcome news, as it was an exceedingly hot day, and men and horses would all be better for a good rest. The Regiment arrived at Moy about noon, where, after watering, the horses were off-saddled and fed in the chateau grounds of the village.

  • THE GEORGE BYGONE – November2018: Another George Cavalryman (1914-18)
    THE GEORGE BYGONE – November2018: Another George Cavalryman (1914-18) This month’s Bygone, unsurprisingly, looks at The George’s connection to the First World War, on the hundredth anniversary of its end. Albert James Hall, born at Easton on 19th Mar 1893, was the second son of Charles Hall, landlord of The George from about 1908 until 1924. Albert, who would already have been a member of the volunteer cavalry regiment, was called up to the 1/1st Battalion of the Essex Yeomanry on the12th of November 1914. He was sent to France as a member of C Squadron, the regiment travelling from Melton, where they had been encamped, via Woodbridge and Southampton to Le Havre arriving on the 1st December. The Yeomanry took a major part in what became known as the Battle for Frezenberg Ridge, part of the 2nd battle of Ypres, on May 13th 1915.The following, subsequently, appeared in the Essex Newsman on the 29th of May: “ ESSEX YEOMANRY ... STORIES OF SPLENDID GALLANTRY. In the last " Essex Newsman” we reported the heroic charge upon and capture of German trenches near Ypres by the Essex Yeomanry, in conjunction with the Horse Guards Blue, the Life Guards, and the 10th Hussars, on May 13. Unfortunately the casualty list was exceedingly heavy —the enemy shelling the Yeomanry in the captured trenches with great accuracy—but the deed was a noble one, will live in history, and is described by Brigadier-General B. Johnson as “the finest thing he has ever seen." The casualties the Essex Yeomanry numbered 163, out of 307 engaged.” The article also included a number of participants’ accounts including: Of the engagement itself, following three weeks of heavy fighting the Essex Yeomanry was moved into a support position at the strategically important Frezenberg Ridge.
