Sometime after their wedding Princess Elizabeth & Prince Philip undertook a nationwide tour.
We walked all the way down to the other end of the dale where she was due to make a brief stop in her progress along the A6.
I was wildy excited at the idea of seeing a real live princess
I couldnt believe that she was in a car. And had only ordinary men in suits with her. Princesses travel in coaches!
But she did wear a very pretty shade of pink

It looks to me as if this photo was taken at St Ann’s Well in Buxton; in which case I am standing about 40 yards to the left.
