Queen Mary had found the opening of her husband's reign nerve-racking, and the outbreak of the first world war, four years after King George's accession, seemed a dark omen. But after 1918 came a quiet period, during which Queen Mary became increasingly interested in the study and collection of antique furniture. The Princess Royal had married Lord Lascelles, and Albert, Duke of York, had taken Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon as his bride. But the eldest Prince, known to his family as David, remained unmarried. Sandringham superseded York Cottage as the Royal Family's country residence.

c A picture of life at Aylesford from the point of view of those who live and work there and those who only visit
Compiled by WALTER SCHWARZ during several weekend visits Produced by Anthony Thwaite
Thirteen years ago the Carmelite friars returned to their medieval priory at Aylesford, Kent, after an absence of 450 years. The half-ruined buildings were bought back and restored with the aid of what the Prior, Father Malachy Lynch, considers a series of financial miracles. Today the priory is not only a centre of pilgrimage: it also receives weekend guests of all faiths and none.
