William & Veronika playing on the Mark I Tank in Hatfield House

Notes on the above picture. In 1916, in the midst of World War I, Hatfield Park was used to test the first British tanks before they were deployed to the Somme. An area was dug with trenches and craters and covered with barbed-wire to represent no man's land and German trench lines on the Western Front. To commemorate this, the only surviving Mark I tank was sited at Hatfield from 1919 to 1970 before being moved to The Tank Museum, Bovington - from Wikipedia [opens in new window].   See also TankMuseum.org [opens in new window] and OurHatfield.org.uk [opens in new window]
