Moddsey has found some more video clips of the visit, dated 3 - 10 March, 1966. An article in The Statist says their visit lasted 7 days, so the dates don't exactly match, but the visit was certainly in the first half of the month.

I believe that Princess Margaret opened the Ocean Terminal during this visit. There used to be a plaque in there commorating the event
