Members of the Royal Family including Princes Harry and William marched behind the Queen’s coffin, as it was delivered from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Abbey.

Thousands of well-wishers gathered outside the gates of the famous London residence of the Royal household, and lined the streets of the Mall, as Her Majesty made the final journey to where she’ll lay in state. 

From 5pm, hundreds-of-thousands of Brits are expected to visit the Queen’s coffin as it sits in Westminster Abbey, with some reports the queue is up to 10 miles long. 

Her coffin was placed on a gun carriage that borne the coffins of both her mother and father, driven through the heart of London.

The procession was led by King Charles III, who walked behind the coffin draped in a Royal Standard and adorned with the Imperial State Crown.
