Carolgate - Market Square
Retford
England

Probably decorated for the coronation of King George V which took place in 1911. There are the initials on Cash and Co's shop window saying 'GR' for George Rex (King). Note that the shutters on the shops are down, so the crowds could be waiting for a celebration event
