The war saw an extension of his responsibilities to include the hospitals and main railway termini in the metropolis. He was also put in charge of the construction of the defensive circle of trenches around London.

This led him to be described by newspapers as 'The Man who runs London'.Francis Lloyd had the gift that so many distinguished men from Wales have, of oratory.

Hardback. Richard Morris, Pen & Sword Books Ltd. In 1912 Lieutenant General Sir Francis Lloyd was appointed to the supreme position reserved for Guardsmen, the command of the London Districts. The war saw an extension of his responsibilities to include the hospitals and main railway termini in the metropolis. He was also put in charge of the construction of the defensive circle of trenches around London. Whether it was meeting hospital trains returning from the front with wounded soldiers, or visiting areas of the City that had suffered from the Zeppelin and Gotha Bomber air raids, Francis Lloyd's presence would help to revive the population's flagging morale. This led him to be described by newspapers as 'The Man who runs London'. Francis Lloyd had the gift that so many distinguished men from Wales have, of oratory. Earlier in his career he had commanded the Welsh Division of the newly formed Territorials. He used this experience to great effect during the Great War in the vital recruitment campaigns around London. Lloyd was a Grenadier Guardsman and served two campaigns in the Sudan and in South Africa during the Boer War, where he was severely wounded. On parade he presented a striking appearance; his stern and searching eye, his black beard and heavy moustache and his exquisitely clothed figure. He had the reputation as something of a martinet and strict disciplinarian. AUTHOR: After a career in the city of London, Richard Morris OBE has pursued a lifetime in the history of his home county, Essex, and its links with London. He is the author of The Powells in Essex and their London Ancestors, The Verderers and Courts of Waltham Forest 1250-200 and Merchants, Medicine and Trafalgar: The History of the Harvey Family.Richard Morris is an author and historian.
