Celebrations to mark the King and Queen’s Coronation have begun in Scotland with a people’s procession through the streets of Edinburgh.The nation saw Charles and Camilla crowned just eight weeks ago during an ancient ceremony where the monarch gave a pledge to “serve”.

Now a service of thanksgiving and dedication for the King and Queen will take place at St Giles’ Cathedral in the Scottish capital, where the monarch will be presented with the Honours of Scotland, the country’s crown jewels.The Honours of Scotland are the oldest Crown Jewels in Britain and have been present at many of the major royal ceremonial events over the past five centuries.

Their centrepiece is the Crown of Scotland, crafted of gold and silver and laden with 94 pearls and 43 gemstones including diamonds, garnets and amethysts.
