The Queen’s coffin was welcomed to the streets of Edinburgh with a quiet round of applause as the cortege made its way down the iconic Royal Mile.
Tens of thousands of people packed the pavements throughout the capital as they eagerly awaited the arrival of Her Majesty’s coffin on Sunday.
Some members of the public were spotted sitting on deck chairs as early as 10am in a bid to secure a coveted front row space to say their final goodbyes to the monarch.
