'General view from above 3rd Bengal Cavalry Mess looking towards the church', 1862 (c)

Photograph by John Burke and William Baker, India, North West Frontier, 1862 (c).

This view of the British cantonment at Peshawar is dominated by St. John's Church (finished in 1860) and the Hindu Kush mountains beyond. The church was used by Anglican army officers and the civil officials of the Raj.
