Constable's Shako
« on: September 07, 2013, 08:32:23 PM »
Can anyone point me to some information about the shako hat I have the guards of the Royal Treasury wearing in an episode of Ripper Street? I've seen them on Prison guards as well in some movies.

Did HM Treasury have its own contingent of uniformed guard or were they part of the military at the time?

Thanks,

Mike
