Review of the Household Brigade by the Queen, in Bushey Park, [west London], 1871. 'The review of the Household Brigade...by her Majesty the Queen, was successfully managed and was favoured with bright and pleasant weather. The Queen, in an open carriage drawn by four greys,...was accompanied by Prince Leopold and Princess Beatrice, with the Duchess of Roxburghe and the Hon. Mary Pitt in attendance. She was met in Bushey Park by the Prince and Princess of Wales, and the Princess of Wales then took a seat in the Queen's carriage...The troops engaged in the review...numbered about 5300 men...The first line was formed of infantry, consisting of the first and third battalions of Grenadier Guards,...first and second battalions of the Scots Fusilier Guards,...first and second battalions of the Coldstreams...This fine body of men was deployed into a line which stretched across the level plateau to the east of the Grand Avenue, the centre being opposite the saluting-base...The bands of the cavalry now came forward...first at a trot and then at a gallop...The trotting, and still more the galloping, of the cavalry was far from being perfect - in fact, some of the squadrons were loose and irregular at these paces'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
