This is a fine old place

Dear Ock

This is a fine old place my room is just about cut in two it’s in the part of the buildings that look a long way over on the right of the picture. They are about 100 years old. From the right of the principle part of this building there are about 250 cadets here and rooms I think for a thousand. The foreground of the picture is used for army wounded. Soldiers now building behind the camera part are used as a hospital.

The wall built by the Romans and between this part where my room is and I can see the whole of it.

Love from Stid
