  So famous! Not surprised a good photo of it was taken..

• optimal chicken said:

  I've a question; When The Blyth News closed were you handed any old images from their archives??

• Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:

  Hi Paul, We weren't handed the images - it's just outside our area. Northumberland Archives might be able to advise you, though. Contact details on their website www.experiencewoodhorn.com/collections/.

• optimal chicken said:

  Ah of course! Thanks.

Coronation of King George VI - marking the occasion

from Public Record Office of Northern Ireland

• NIEye said:

  Photographed on The Mall, Armagh, looking north the small red-bricked masonic hall is left of the tall spire of the first Presbyterian church. Even though he has obscured his face with a salute the Deputy Lieutenant is more than likely H.B Armstrong of Dean's Hill Armagh.

• Public Record Office of Northern Ireland said:

  We've now flipped the photo and replaced it - thanks for pointing that out NIreland eye.

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...

  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.

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