Introduction: saddle up!


Our collection includes arms, uniforms, medals, silver and paintings.

Together these illustrate the regiments' part in the great battles of the last three centuries. It includes artefacts from the American War of Independence, the Battle of Waterloo, the Charge at Aliwal,the Charge of the Light Brigade, the Zulu War, the Indian Mutiny, the Charge at Omdurman, the Boer War, the Great War, the Second World War and the Gulf War.


We invite you into our treasury of artefacts that bring history to life.

Discover the intriguing history of our regiments and examine our most fascinating items.
Move through a series of 'rooms' and see an original 'red-coat' as worn during the American War of Independence, a tin of chocolate from the Boer War, the bugle blown to sound the Charge of the Light Brigade, and weapons from the Second World War.
