  Possibly the 1911 dock strike?

• Blushing Haircut said:

  what an amazing shot. I would be nervous getting in front of that scene with a digital camera -- that photographer sure was a brave one.

  Number 8 bus from Mile end via Bank, Aldwych, Trafalgar Square. I think this might be somewhere round the Aldwych as there's a theatre on the right. Sadly, though it does still go past Bank, the Number 8 no longer runs this route.

Royal Progress, London, 1911 (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• br@mbly said:

  23rd June 1911 it says. George V and May of Teck were crowned on the 22nd June. This'll be their coronation parade. I think the photographer has just got the date a bit wrong:-)

• swanq said:

  Actually, the "royal progress" was an additional event, on the day after the coronation. See an article in the NYT query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9402E2DA1E3EE233A...

• swanq said:

  The left-hand building has 5 Lombard Street on a sign and is an ABC Aerated Bread Company tea-room en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerated_Bread_Company The building next to it has office space to rent in January 2008 www.landmarkplc.com/lombard/Lombard_1.html This is close to the Bank tube station in the City of London.

• Retired at last said:

  Notice that the carriage horses are controlled by postilions, not a coachman.
