Standards of the British Horse Guards (Life Guards) under William and Mary 1689-1694

Comparing these with the 1713 standards I posted previously, it can be seen that the basic colours remained the same (apart from the fringes, which were gold and silver in 1689) although the motifs changed quite significantly, with the earlier standards showing the royal cipher and the 1713 standards showing the traditional national heraldic emblems for England and Scotland (the rose and the thistle). The Great Wardrobe Accounts suggest changes of standards in the 1690s, for example after the death of Queen Mary in 1694, when new standards were issued with the cipher of William III alone in 1696.

Most of the troops served at the Boyne in 1690 and then in the 1690s at the battles of the Leuze, Steenkerque and Landen in Flanders.
