Brief film of the King and Queen leaving the RAF base at Hillingdon House in Uxbridge in the latter days of the Second World War.
This film captures the conclusion of a royal visit to the RAF base at Hillingdon House, a Victorian stately home that the Royal Air Force had occupied in various guises since 1917. The King and Queen shake hands before clambering inside a car, then wave regally while soldiers cheer and a man runs into the road behind them to take a picture of the departing vehicle.
