Sunday 7th March 1915

Part of the training for Tunstill’ s Company, and other men of 69^th Brigade, whilst stationed in Folkestone took place in Radnor Park. This large open space provided the opportunity for drill for large numbers of men; many of whom were billeted nearby (see 4^th March).

Radnor Park area of Folkestone. Note the proximity of many of the billets to the Park (see 4th March)

Pte. William Swift (see 6^th November 1914) was reported by Cpl. Atkinson as having been ‘absent off church parade’; on the orders of Capt. Lewis Ernest Buchanan (see 5^th March) he would be confined to barracks for three days.
