Street scene, Mozambique, 1918

1918

Street scene looking down a wide boulevard with European style buildings. The street is possibly in Port Amelia [Pemba] when British forces arrived in Portuguese East Africa. ❧ This image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in Portuguese East Africa with the Royal Army Medical Corps. During the war he met with missionaries in East Africa which in turn lead to him joining the mission at Tumutumu and then establishing the mission at Chogoria, both in Kenya.
