King Street
Southwell

Crowds during a parade. Its not known what this event is for and there is no date for this photograph, though the style of clothes in this and related photo's (see NCCE000483, NCCE000484, NCCE000485, NCCE000489) indicate that it's dated somewhere around 1895-1905. It could be to celebrate anything from Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee (1897), the Coronation of Edward VII (1901), the Boer War (1899-1902) or some local event ?. The men are dressed in some sort of non-descript Muslim costume.
