Royal visit to FoD (General)

The date of the visit of the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh was 24th April 1957.
They travelled from Ross-on-Wye to the Speech House through the village of Walford where a crowd of villagers had gathered including myself with my baby son who was born in March in my arms.
Two oak trees were planted at the Speech House, if my memory serves me correctly one of the trees was pulled up and had to be re planted.
