Title: "A Social Centre: The Duke and Duchess of York visit the Browning Settlement at Walworth". Crowds line the road as the Royal car arrives; some of the wellwishers carry flags, and bunting is suspended between the trees. The Duke and Duchess disembark and are met by local dignitaries. Police struggle to hold back onlookers. The Royal couple are given a tour of the Settlement grounds. The mayor and others follow behind. Mounted guards clear a path as the visitors depart.
