Huge queues formed outside a Cardiff supermarket shortly after it reopened following the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty’s funeral took place at 11am on Monday in Westminster Abbey in London.
That was followed by a procession through parts of London before the hearse reached the Queen’s final resting place at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle. There, a committal service took place at around 4.15pm, ending shortly before 5pm.
With the eyes of the nation and indeed the globe glued to live broadcasts of Monday’s events – the first funeral of a monarch in the modern age – shops and businesses across Wales and the rest of the UK closed for the majority of the day.
