On page 62 of the June 2014 edition of Stand to!, the magazine of The Western Front Association, there is an article by Terry Dean where fourteen photographs taken by Major General Thomas Stanton Lambert in 1914 are reproduced. In 2012 descendants of Stanton Lambert donated an album containing one hundred 3" x 2" images, all taken in 1914, to the Lancashire Infantry Museum in Preston. I believe it's possible to view the album by appointment.
