British Army WW2 Dunkirk 1940 Gloucestershire Regiment Military Medal group of three comprising Military Medal named to 5186290 L/Cpl R L E Mayo, 1939/1945 Star and Defence Medal. The 5th Battalion Gloucestershire Regiment were fighting in the French village of Ledringhem on the 28th and 29th May 1940. On the 28th Ledringhem became surrounded by the enemy who were attacking on four sides, and this was confirmed this when a dispatched rider sent to Brigade Headquarters failed to return. At half past seven in the evening the enemy commenced an intense mortar bombardment, obviously preparing for a large scale attack. The accounts then state: There were short, sharp bursts of mortar bombardment, followed by airburst artillery over the village. Soon after this had begun two runners got into Battalion Headquarters from Brigade, Lance-Corporals Barnfield and Mayo of a "C" Company platoon which had been detached at Reitweld, farther to the north, but which had been withdrawn to Brigade Headquarters earlier on. It had taken them four hours to complete the three miles to Ledringhem, through strong enemy positions, and they both received the M.M for their timely action and bravery. The message they brought was of the utmost importance, and if they had not got through there would have been little hope for survival of the Battalion. The orders were to break out and make towards Bambecque where they would join up with the remainder of the Brigade. After sustaining many casualties the majority of the Battalion, including L.Cpl. Barnfield, managed to slip out that night and the following day received a warm welcome from the 8th Worcesters at Bambecque. Mayo was not so lucky and that night was taken Prisoner of War and he was held in Marlag und Milag Nord P.O.W camp, Westertimke, which was liberated on 3rd May 1945. The lot inclues photos and paperwork

MORGAN AND SANDERS; A REGENCY MAHOGANY CAMPAIGN SOFA, CIRCA 1810With brass inlaid lyre arm terminals and turned supports, 198cm wide; 92cm highProvenance: By repute acquired from The Kepples Head Hotel, Portsmouth, where it was recorded in the 19th Century hotel inventory. The Kepples Head is located 100 yards from the main naval base gate and was regularly used by Naval Officers and Diplomats, prior to embarkation from Portsmouth. This campaign or metamorphic sofa has been associated to the work of Morgan & Sanders (1801-1820), who alongside Thomas Butler and William Pocock were the leading proponents of ‘patent’ furniture in the Regency era. The designs of which enabled the elite army and navy officers to travel in relative luxury. Established in 1801, Morgan & Sanders’ elaborate trade card promoted their business as: ‘ Manufacturers of their New Invented IMPERIAL DINING TABLES & PORTABLE CHAIRS, Improved Sofa Beds, Chair Beds, four Post & Tent Bedsteads, Furniture, Bedding &c. complete at their Upholstery & Cabinet Ware Rooms, Nos. 16 & 17 Catherine Street, Strand’.In 1805 Morgan & Sanders re-branded their premises as ‘Trafalgar House’, taking advantage of the death of the naval hero and their client, Lord Nelson. Morgan & Sanders had supplied some furniture to Nelson’s house, Merton in Surrey and collapsible pieces were used to furnish HMS Victory.Interestingly, Morgan & Sanders advertised their designs in R. Ackermann’s monthly periodical, The Repository of Arts, from 1809 to 1815, who’s print shop on the Strand was located yards from the Morgan & Sanders premises. An upper floor is illustrated in No. 8 August 1st, 1809, and shows a range of furniture, including lyre back chairs. The lyre was a popular instrument among aristocratic gentil amateur lady musicians and imbued with illusions of Classical significance.Condition report: Overall in good condition.

Some brass inlay a little loose to both lyre sides with some pinging up. Chip to the back leg foot, inside castor. Various other knocks, dents, and signs of wear commensurate with use and age.
