The King And Queen Visit Queen's Road

Queens Road c1955
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Some time, soon after the Second World War, with our next door neighbours, we walked down to Queen's Road, to watch the King and Queen drive by. We stood near Evan Cook's Depository. I assume that their Majesties visited a lot of London's suburbs at this time, in order to cheer people up after the war. Ken Cook
