A sepia colour photograph of Wesley's Chapel Girl Guides in the early 1920s. The Guides are shown in front of the Chapel portico. The girls' uniforms and the flags lend a somewhat military tone to the scene. The idea of being part of an 'army for faith' was quite common at the time; the Salvation Army even incorporated this concept into its name.
