The Coronation of Queen Elizabeth in 1953 was a momentous occasion for the nation. Crowds lined the soggy streets and people in towns and villages across the land celebrated.
More than 20 million people crowded around televisions to watch the grand event, outnumbering the radio audience for the first time.
While those black and white pictures of a young Elizabeth on her way to be crowned seem like they come from another time, there is one legacy of her coronation that is still going strong today.
