In these times when our thoughts are with those who fought in the First World War your readers will be interested in a large collection of handmade embroidered postcards which were bought in the conflict areas by soldiers to send love and reassurance to their families.
This archive is held at the Nothe Fort and all these beautiful and emotionally charged postcards can be viewed online by following the link at geoffkirby.co.uk/NotheFort/ This website also includes over 1,000 photographs held in the Fort’s archive including many relating to the both world wars.
