125 years ago today, the death of Queen Victoria marked the end of the Victorian Era. Taking the throne in 1837 aged 18, she reigned for 63 years in which Britain was the dominant global power. We have rare glimpses of Victoria (and her funeral) on film: ow.ly/50jl50Y14r2

In 1917, Lutyens and Fabian Ware met to discuss how the #WW1 dead would be remembered. High Wood would be surrounded by a "broad terraced walk". At Thiepval, a terrace was to built, not a memorial, as the scale of the missing was unknown at this stage. @CWGC Archives #Somme
