Original 92nd Kilt c1815
I see the National Army Museum have now made available some pictures of Ensign John Bramwell's 92nd Reg’t (Gordon Highlanders) kilt. Box pleated kilt (22 pleats) with a series of ties and made from Wilsons of Bannockburn's material.
Bramwell was commissioned into the 92nd on 29th July 1813 and fought with the battalion at Quatre Bras on 16th June where he was severely wounded, his right leg being amputated. He was promoted Lieutenant 18th July 1815 and discharged on half pay in 1817. He died in 1876.
