Sandringham won't be re-opening to the public today (12 April).

As lockdown lifts for many, the estate, including the new Children's Play Area, will remain out of bounds, as they continue their mourning for Prince Philip.

Those with tickets are being asked to bear with them, as the estate will be in touch.

The Duke of Edniburgh passed away on Friday (9 April) at the age of 99 at Windsor Castle.

His funeral will be held this Saturday (17 April) at 3pm, but the public won't be allowed to attend because of coronavirus.

Her Majesty The Queen has announced a two-week period of royal mourning, which started on the day of the Duke's death.
