How North Northamptonshire has been paying its respects to The Queen

Books of condolence have been opened across the county

Northamptonshire residents have been paying their respects to her late Queen Elizabeth II with flowers and messages.

As flags fly at half mast on public buildings, a steady flow of people wishing to pay their respects have visited halls, churches and council chambers.

Bells tolled a half-muffled peal adding 96 tolls – one for each year of the late Queen’s life.

People stood and paused for reflection listening to the sombre bells sound out.
