Sketch of Fort Langleh by Lieutenant Leslie W. Shakespear, 2nd Battalion Prince of Wales’s Own Gurkhas.

‘The main entrance to that fort, with quarter guard;

on the top of a hill ending the range, four or five miles distant

is seen the village of Lalrooma, a friendly Kowlong chief,

beyond lie the hills of the Cachar border’.
