Manchester’s scores of heartfelt tributes to the late Queen Elizabeth II are going to be preserved in a special city archive, the council has announced.
The archive will also include the city’s official Books of Condolence and the messages attached to flowers which were left for Her Majesty in St Ann’s Square.
