Visit of the Prince of Wales to Shoreditch, London, 18th October 1927. The future King Edward VIII visits Windsor House, a council estate in Wenlock Road, Shoreditch, London. Accompanied by officials, the prince strides along with a rolled umbrella, to the excitement of the residents who line the route. Children run in front of the royal group, and someone waves a Union flag from a balcony above. The choice of venue was probably related to the royal surname, Windsor.
