  Mad guess - it's a Pugin church or chapel, from the decoration ... Mr Whitehead also commissioned Mr Poole to photograph this different organ - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000590635 Edit - Mr W. Whitehead was an organ builder whose premises were at 33 The Mall, Waterford - next door to Mr Poole. See - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000590110

Church decorations in Vulture Street, South Brisbane for the royal visit in 1954

  The Sovereign holds the title 'Defender of the Faith and Supreme Governor of the Church of England'. These titles date back to the reign of King Henry VIII, who was initially granted the title 'Defender of the Faith' in 1521 by Pope Leo X. When Henry VIII renounced the spiritual authority of the Papacy in 1534 he was proclaimed 'supreme head on earth' of the Church of England. This was repealed by Queen Mary I but reinstated during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, who was proclaimed 'Supreme Governor' of the Church of England. The Queen's relationship with the Church of England was symbolised at the Coronation in 1953 when Her Majesty was anointed by the Archbishop of Canterbury and took an oath to "maintain and preserve inviolably the settlement of the Church of England, and the doctrine worship, discipline, and government thereof, as by law established in England".
