The image is a black-and-white historical photograph depicting a group of people gathered around a small, ice-covered water feature, possibly a fountain. The individuals are dressed in dark, heavy clothing, suggesting a cold climate, and some are holding sticks, implying they are playing or interacting with the ice. The setting is an outdoor area with an arched, stone building visible in the background. This building has large, arched windows, and its façade is partially covered in ivy. The perimeter of the fountain is bordered by stone, with no additional features visible. The image is placed within a teal border that frames the photograph, with text and logos above and below.

In light of the actions by suffragists in London in 1914, British Museum Trustees needed to keep a close eye on women visiting the Museum. Extra police were brought in women & were required to be accompanied by others who could vouch for their characters. #Archive30 #ArchiveAction #BritishMuseum

#Archive30 #ArchiveAction 'The Way to Camp' by S.H.Walker (1946) offers all kinds of invaluable advice including the correct action when walking. As he says, 'Few townfolk know how to walk'. I am definitely guilty of what he calls the 'townie slouch'. @arascot.bsky.social @jdk653.bsky.social
