At 3pm the Honourable Artillery Company fired two rounds from the Tower of London, marking the beginning and end of a national minute’s silence for His Royal Highness, The Duke of Edinburgh.

This afternoon our thoughts are with Her Majesty The Queen and the Royal Family, as His Royal Highness is laid to rest at Windsor Castle.
