Details of where you can leave floral tributes for the Queen

The Queen, our nation's longest-reigning monarch, died at Balmoral aged 96 on September 8.

Town Councils and Village Parish Councils have assigned designated areas for floral tributes and ask that any form of wrapping from the flowers is removed before laying them.

Once the mourning period has ended after the Queen's funeral on September 19, the flowers will be collected as part of a ceremonial removal.

The flowers will then be composted, with a tree planted in each town in memory of Her Majesty the Queen.

Floral tributes in Huntingdon have started to be placed outside the Town Hall.
