Visit of Prince Albert to Colchester - Arrival of His Royal Highness and Staff at Wavenhoe [sic] Park, 1856. Royal visit '... to Colchester for the purpose of inspecting the troops stationed in the Encampment...Having concluded his examination of the Camp, the Prince proceeded to...the review of the troops, who were drawn up in line in Wivenhoe Park...The regiments...were commanded by: 88th, Colonel Maxwell; West Suffolk Militia, Colonel Deare; West Essex Militia, Lieutenant-Colonel Brice; East Norfolk Militia, Major Sir E. Lacon, M.P.; Essex Rifles, Major Wallace. The fineness of the weather and the presence of the distinguished visitor attracted a great number of spectators. The troops, having marched past in slow and quick time, went through a series of evolutions; at the close of which the Prince briefly expressed his satisfaction to Major-General Gascoigne'.
