(Picture: PA )From Shakespeare’s Globe theatre on the Thames to Camden’s British Library, Queen Elizabeth II opened more than 100 buildings in London during her seven decades on the throne.
Between her coronation in 1952 and her death last week at the age of 96, the UK’s longest-serving monarch cut the ribbon on new schools, transport lines, hospitals, theatres, bridges and government buildings.
