Description

A distant view of groups of soldiers moving around the parade ground at Lark Hill Camp. The muddy state of the field in the foreground suggests the difficult conditions encountered by the troops training here. The Salisbury Plain was the main training area for Australian troops from about May 1916 until the end of the First World War.
