A horse-drawn coach driving past a group of cottages, Greater London Authority, 1895-1905. A horse-drawn coach driving past a group of cottages in an unidentified area of London, with spectators watching. This photograph appears to have been taken sometime between 1895-1905 and therefore it seems unlikely that the photograph was taken by Charles William Prickett who was born in 1896. The photographs in the rest of his collection were taken between 1920-1940. In this photograph, the people on top of the coach may be part of a coaching club meet driving from Hyde Park to places such as Crystal Palace for lunch, as part of the London Season.
