It's certainly post-1907 because you can just see the overhead tram cables, so that rules out Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, the Relief of Mafeking and the coronation of Edward 7th. It could be the coronation of George 5th or it could possibly be Empire Day, when the flags were stuck up once a year. I can't see 'owt that gives further clues...yet!
