As the Queen made her final journey through Scotland, a local equestrian spontaneously called together riders from across Perthshire, Kinross-shire and Fife to create a mounted tribute at the roadside.
Freelance horse trainer and riding instructor Emma Cheape (27) put out a post on social media on Saturday night when she understood the Queen’s cortege would pass directly past her parents’ beef and sheep farm at Glenfarg.
She felt it would be a “fitting” thing to do, to “honour Elizabeth II’s journey with a guard of horses” as she passed Pittillock Farm on the M90 en route to the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh.
