Image description

Gwalior Star 1843 awarded to Private Thomas Down, 1st Battalion, 3rd (The East Kent) Regiment of Foot (The Buffs). The Gwalior Star was awarded by the East India Company to soldiers who took part in the 1843 Gwalior Campaign against Maharaja Mahadji Rao Scindia. The six pointed star was made of bronze from guns captured during the fighting in Gwalior. In the centre of the star is a silver disk, which bears the date 29 December 1843 and the name of either Maharajpoor or Punniar, battles which occurred on the same day during the campaign. Private Down’s medal bears the honour Punniar, an engagement that saw Major-General John Grey’s force rout a 12,000-strong Maratha army and capture most of its artillery.
