The King has opened the doors to Castle of Mey and Dumfries House in Scotland, and Highgrove, Glos., to be 'warm spaces' for local people faced with cost-of-living crisis and loneliness.
Of all the true and wonderful things that were said about Her Majesty the Queen today this, for me, rang truest, and will stay with me for the longest:
At the end of the Committal Service, The King placed The Queen's Company Colour of the Grenadier Guards on the Coffin.
At the same time, The Lord Chamberlain "broke" his Wand of Office and placed it on the Coffin to signify the end of Service.
The Instruments of State; the Imperial State Crown and the Orb and Sceptre have remained with Her Majesty’s coffin.
At the Committal Service, they were placed on the
High Altar at St George's Chapel.
