  Given that she's being referred to as Princess of Wales, the (original?) photo must date from between late 1901 (when her husband George became Prince of Wales) and 1910 (when he became King). Princess Mary of Teck (also known as 'May')

• Niall McAuley said:

  Over on Pinterest I see this image labelled: HRH the Duchess of York (later HM Queen Mary) wearing the diamond and emerald shamrock brooch she later left to her daughter-in-law Marina Duchess of Kent and now worn by Princess Michael of Kent.

• Niall McAuley said:

  And indeed, here is Princess Micheal of Kent with the brooch.

• Niall McAuley said:

  This clipping from the Glasgow Herald, July 5th 1893 suggests it was a wedding gift from Sir Frederick and Lady Milner, although it says four leafed rather than 3.

• Niall McAuley said:

  Her wedding dress featured rose, thistle and shamrock motifs for England,Scotland, and Ireland. No leeks or daffodils?

A decorated Central Railway Station, 1901

  The street off to the left with the horse bus was Devonshire Street which is now only the Devonshire Street pedestrian tunnel. The street was obliterated by railway tracks leading to the new (existing) Central Station when it moved further north.

• Waterlooian said:

  Thanks GrenadierGuardsDmr for that interesting information! Am now able to pinpoint the area in my mind's eye!
