EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, taken in the 1930s, we see the Duchess of York gracing the opening ceremony of new flats at Isle Dogs. Despite her absence from the christening of a baby prince due to a prior engagement, she made it a point to attend this significant event. The Housing Society's first block of flats, named St Huberts House on Janet Street, Isle of Dogs, was inaugurated by Her Royal Highness. The image captures an elegant and poised Duchess as she stands before the crowd during the opening ceremony. Dressed in regal attire befitting her status, she exudes grace and charm. It is evident that her presence brings joy and excitement to all those present. This photograph not only serves as a visual record but also reflects an era between two world wars when Europe was undergoing significant changes. The monochrome effect adds depth and nostalgia to the image while highlighting its historical significance. Preserved by TopFoto. co. uk for future generations to admire and learn from, this snapshot offers us a glimpse into a time long gone. It reminds us of the importance placed on community development even amidst royal duties and engagements.
