The Kashmir camp was particularly striking, with its gateway modelled on the Pandrethan temple.
‘The whole frontage of the camp is palisaded with the most lovely carved Kashmiri wood work. Each panel is a fretted floral design, grapes on one, pomegranates on another, irises on a third, and so on … The gateway in the centre is of the same dark-stained, carved wood, but the pattern is only in relief and not fretted through. The gateway roofs are of copper, each point being surmounted by a gilt ball.’ – ‘The Camps of Indian Chiefs’, Pioneer, 23 November 1911
