The Review of Lancashire Rifle Volunteers in Knowsley Park... 1860. Creator: Unknown
The Review of Lancashire Rifle Volunteers in Knowsley Park - from a drawing by our special artist, 1860. About half-past two the first regiments of volunteers came upon the scene, and took up their position on the plateau on the north side of the ground. From that time forward the various corps, some of which were loudly cheered in their progress through the crowd, arrived in rapid succession, with their respective bands playing before them. Meanwhile, the space allotted to pedestrians on the south side of the inclosure had become filled with one dense mass of human beings, yet the various avenues of approach still continued to contribute their thousands to the already vast assemblage...On the extreme right were placed the Lancashire Hussars and the Lancashire Mounted Rifle Volunteers, commanded by Sir R. T. Gerard, the men of the latter corps brilliant in scarlet uniforms...next the cavalry; and on their left were posted the Liverpool Artillery, consisting of four battalions 2068 strong. They took up their ground in lines of contiguous columns of battalions at intervals of six paces. Then came the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Lancashire Rifle Brigades, each being drawn up in the same order as the artillery'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860
