I was wondering if anyone could shine a light on the history of this image of Fort Attock I accquied recently. A large print it bears a resemblance to photograph collection in the National Army Museum from Sergeant Poe, Somerset Light Infantry, 1880 (c)-1897. The hand writting is similar but slightly different as the Museum seems to have confirmed. The records are slightly sketchy regarding who was stationed here at the time, the only clue is the handwritten note saying "Commanded here 1885-86."
Historically an interesting time line as a certain Richard Nugent Stoker was stationed as Garrison Surgeon of Fort Attock Other than that, I have drawn a blank to who the person might be or the photographer might be. Of course, this is now the headquarters of the Pakistan Army (SSG), as a friend found out when he was arrested trying to cross the bridge.
Any information or ideas of where to research next would be most gratefully recieved
Richard
