At the outbreak of World War One, life for Britain’s women was mainly tied to a life of domesticity, their places still largely in the home. Some, like the Suffragettes, were campaigning vocally for change, but the glass ceiling remained at ground level. Now, as Britain's men headed abroad to fight, women took their place en masse in factories, shops and offices across the country. And everything had the potential to change.

To fill the gap left by a generation of fighting men, more than a million women took the chance to join the workforce between 1914 and 1918. They worked across the economy - from tram drivers and train cleaners, to postal workers and police patrols.

The wartime woman worker producing munitions for the front is among the most familiar visual legacies of the war. But conditions were poor and the work was arduous.

The last hundred years has seen a transformation in women's lives. How much of this change dates back to the four years of World War One .
