Royal Visit


Slightly larger than A4 so I have had to scan as two over lapping sections. A Royal visit by King George V, Queen Mary and Princess Mary. Princess Mary was the third child and only daughter of King George and Queen Mary. The picture must predate her marriage on 28 February 1922, when she became the Countess of Harewood. Also in the picture is the Duke of Connaught, otherwise known as Prince Arthur, son of Queen Victoria and George V's uncle.

This picture came from the Crown Lane archive and I would take an educated guess that the location is the Royal Arsenal, Woolwich.
