The funeral of the Queen will be held on Monday, September 19.

She will lie in state for four days at Westminster Abbey and people will be allowed to pay their respects.

Today, her oak coffin will be carried by her gamekeepers to a hearse today that will take her to the city today. It will be driven slowly to the Palace of Holyroodhouse for 4pm.

The Queen will initially lay in state at St Giles’ Cathedral in Edinburgh for 24 hours from tomorrow afternoon and on Tuesday, she will be flown to London, accompanied by her daughter, the Princess Royal. She will be taken to Westminster Hall on Wednesday, and the Queen will lie in state from Thursday.

A period of national mourning will last until the day of the state funeral, the government has announced. The Royal Family will observe a further period of mourning for seven days afterwards.

The day of the funeral will be a bank holiday, it has been confirmed.

Today, Royal Proclamations will be made across the county to declare Charles III as king.

How will the Proclamation be made in Cumbria?

The High Sheriff of Cumbria, Alan McViety, will make the proclamation outside The Courts, on English Street in Carlisle very shortly after noon tomorrow and the public are invited to attend.

  • Band to play one verse of the national anthem
  • High Sheriff to call for three cheers for His Majesty the King
  • High Sheriff to hand copies of the Proclamation to district mayors/chairmen
  • Bugler plays a fanfare

12:20pm: Dignitaries process, led by The Lord-Lieutenant, High Sheriff and mayor of Carlisle to the Market Cross where the Carlisle City Proclamation will be made by the city mayor Mike Mitchelson.
