Where would I find info on

[Dee]

This may seem like a very strange request (or perhaps not). My gran was in the Women's Land Army during WW1 (at least that's what I think it was called). How do I find out more about this as I cannot find any links to any relevant sites using a web search?

My father has a fantastic copy of my gran in uniform at the age of 18-19 and I would really love to know more, especially as I now have details of my granddad.

Can anyone point me in the right direction??

You should visit the IWM - their current temporary special exhibition is "Women At War".

Here is a programme link -

This may be nearer to you.

There is a WLA display in Hut 8 at Eden Camp.
