Wilfred Lamb's post card of the Church Army King's Hostel"

King's Hostel, Buckingham Palace Road, London, S.W. ?

1917

The Church Army was founded in 1882 and in WWI it did a lot of work with troops in France, running about 2000 social clubs around the country. This card shows a huge room full of immaculately made beds, a small table in the middle with a pot plant on it, next to a fire with three fire buckets nearby.
