I believe the building in the background is the Old Admiralty and the parade ground itself is the Horse Guards Parade.

I think so too, they still Troop the Colour there.

Interesting detail: about 2/3 of the way to the right, in front of the line of guards and just behind the foreground figure, there is a second mounted figure who appears to be Indian. He's wearing a decorated turban of some kind, has a moustache, and doesn't look particularly old. You can see him in the medium size, but he stands out more in the larger sizes. Someone has tagged this "raj" -- so I can't be the only one who's noticed. I wonder who he is? Also more apparent in the larger size: masses of people standing on a balcony in the background, and at almost every window!

Well spotted CM! Isn't that interesting. I'd guess he was some visiting dignitary but I don't have the faintest idea who.

My guess is that they are from India/Hindustan.

It has to be after January 1901 - otherwise it would be just Queen. You can also see an "EA" on the arch - so it's definitely referring to Edward and Alexandra.

Didn't we have a pro-Canada parade like this before, in Belfast?

This one looks coronation-ish to me. Which means it could be London. (From looking through what feels like half the Clonbrock collection the other day for the parade.)

Where would you get a hill like that in London?
