Queens Coronation party 1953

[Shellywoos]

This photo is of the Queens Coronation. My Mother was 3 at the time and said she thinks this was held at Ridpool School.
I thought I would post it as the King's Coronation was last weekend. Not sure if anyone recognises themselves or family.

There are a few of my relatives on here but I am not sure on all the others

Wow those are fab. My Mother said she was given a mug but thinks it got broken I am guessing it was one like yours

When we was sorting out our house as we were moving I also came across two sort of magazines/brochures. They were also from the Coronation Year. I did take a couple of photos of a few pages.

I just loved the mentions in the 'two pages of people'
