Memorial Cathedral, Mombasa, Kenya, 1918

1918

“C.M.S. Cathedral, Mombasa.” Exterior view of the Mombasa Memorial Cathedral built by the Church Missionary Society (CMS) and opened in 1905. Lt. Irvine was posted to Yala River in Kenya for a period in 1918. ❧ The image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in German East Africa and Portuguese East Africa with the Royal Army Medical Corps. During this time he would meet Dr John W Arthur which in turn would lead to his missionary work at Chogoria in Kenya.
