Additional security measures have been introduced around Windsor.

Hostile Vehicle Mitigation barriers have been installed by Thames Valley Police to help protect those visiting the town to pay their respects to the late Queen. They're designed to prevent vehicles from causing a danger to the public.

Residents, business and visitors will have noticed an increased police presence in Windsor, which is part of many visible and not so visible security measures in place.

Her Majesty's funeral procession will conclude at the Castle on Monday (19 September), ahead of a committal service and private burial service for the Royal Family.
