The Coronation is for King George V on the 22nd of June, 1911. The parade is, I think, going north, up High Street. The front float sign says "Support your Colonies" and has "S. Africa" and "Australia" printed on the side.

Notice the sailor in the crowd and the elaborate decorations and flags on the streets. I really don't understand the present day reluctance to celebrate and be proud of the Union Jack.
