Services to commemorate the late Duke of Edinburgh’s life were held in Aberdeenshire a day after Prince Philip was laid to rest at Windsor.
Aberdeenshire’s Lord-Lieutenant Sandy Manson, the Queen’s personal representative for the area, said the ceremonies were “very special”.
He said: “Aberdeenshire has a close and enduring link with the Royal Family and we wanted to have the opportunity to give thanks and praise for Prince Philip’s life and to give our thoughts and prayers to Her Royal Majesty and her family at this sad time.

‘Stay away’ warnings swept aside by mourners who would not be deterred from ‘duty’ to Prince Philip
Streets in Windsor blocked off for safety reasons, while Duke of Edinburgh’s ‘inspirational’ life is remembered in church services around UK

No one was meant to be there. Signs around Windsor called for restraint among the public grieving for Prince Philip, asking people to “not gather at royal residences”.
But by lunchtime yesterday, so many people had come to lay flowers for the Duke of Edinburgh that Castle Hill, the street leading to Windsor Castle, had to be blocked off for safety. “There were just too many vehicles and too many people”, said a staff member. “It was too dangerous – we had a few near misses this morning.”
