Hundreds of Edinburgh mourners have gathered at the Meadows as they queue hours in advance to see the Queen's coffin lie in rest.
Starting at Middle Meadow Walk, huge swathes of people were seen standing in line to get one of the first opportunities to see Her Majesty lie in rest at St Giles' Cathedral.
On Monday afternoon, a royal procession will see the coffin of Queen Elizabeth II leave the Palace of Holyroodhouse and brought up the Royal Mile, where a service will take place with members of the royal family.
