  That's not Queen Mary, but Queen Alexandra.

  Gentleman on the left with the long beard is General Sir Dighton Macnaghten Probyn VC, GCB, GCSI, GCVO, ISO, PC (21 January 1833 – 20 June 1924). " ... Probyn was totally devoted to the Princess [Alexandra], then Queen-Empress, building gardens for her at Windsor Castle and Sandringham House. The Queen returned the devotion, carrying round a knife with her to cut open his collar when he occasionally had seizures. Sir Dighton had an impressive appearance in old age with a very long white beard reaching down to his navel which concealed his VC on ceremonial occasions. On his death in 1924 he was buried in Kensal Green Cemetery. ..." From - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dighton_Probyn

London Bridge with trams, London, Rex Hazlewood, 1918-1919

from State Library of New South Wales

• beachcomber australia said:

  About the trams seen on Westminster Bridge with no overhead wires ... "Several different companies and municipalities operated London's electric tramways. The largest was the LCC, with lines equipped with an unusual form of electricity supply via an underground conduit located between the running rails. Other operators mainly used the more conventional overhead electric wires. Many of London's trams had to be equipped with both systems of electricity supply, with routes being equipped with change points." From - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trams_in_London
