<p style='text-align: justify;'> Four women sitting on a pile of logs eating sandwiches and holding mugs. Three are dressed in breeches, knee high laced boots and jumpers, one is wearing a smock with knee high boots. The Women's Forestry Service was started by Miss Rosamund Crowdy as a section of the Land Army. It was set up under the Timber Supply Department, part of the Board of trade in 1917. Training camps for cutting and measuring the timber were held at several locations, including Wendover. </p>
