The Changing of the Guard is, strictly speaking, called Guard Mounting where the new guard exchanges duty with the old guard. The Guard is provided by the resident regiment of Foot Guards in their full-dress uniform of red tunics and bearskins, although in cold or wet weather they may be dressed in their 'great coats' too. The Guards are stationed at Victoria Barracks and march up to and from the Castle accompanied by the Guards Band playing traditional military marches as well as popular songs. The other element takes place in Lower Ward, in the area adjacent to the Guard Room and the entrance to Horseshoe Cloisters where the old and new guard exchange duties. This photograph was taken on the day of the Queen's Birthday.
