Charming never before seen childhood photos of Edward VIII and George VI playing various sports have been unearthed 117 years later.<br />
<br />
The brothers try their hand at golf, fishing, skating and shooting in images taken at the Royal country retreat of Sandringham, Norfolk, between 1904 and 1906.<br />

Prince Edward, then aged 11, wears a kilt while hitting a golf shot in one photo. His nine year old brother Prince Albert (later George VI) holds up a fish he has caught and there is an image of Edward captaining the Sandringham village football team.
