Diamond Jubilee
A Memory of London.
I disagree with the date given. I think this is 1897 and shows the temporary grandstand on the corner of Whitehall and what was to become Horse Guards Avenue. The grandstand could accommodate 4,000 persons and was built for Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebrations. The site had been empty for over ten years, the previous building was called Carrington House.
To the right of the photograph is the Banqueting Hall which has been covered in grandstands at several levels.
Thank you for that - we are in the process of updating the date on our system. Regards, Editor.
