Part of the 1960 Carnival procession, with dancers and jesters on foot. In front of (left to right), 54 Newland Street, 52 Newland Street (Home and Colonial) and 50 Newland Street. Includes spectators.

The Carnival Queen was nearly late, and one of the bands didn’t arrive till towards the end, but it was a successful day – see the Braintree and Witham Times, 23 June 1960.

There are quite a number of photos of this 1960 Carnival, for which see M360 to M364, M426, M835 and M836, and M990 to M992
