Queen Elizabeth II's coffin has been carried to the state gun carriage before it is moved to Wellington Arch.
In moving scenes, thousands descended on London to pay their respects to the late monarch – both outside and in Westminster Abbey.
Heads of state and overseas government representatives, including foreign royal families, governors-general and realm prime ministers initially gathered at the Royal Hospital, Chelsea, on Monday morning.
They then travelled under collective arrangements to Westminster Abbey, now over 1,000 years old, ahead of arguably the biggest funeral in Britain's history.

It was then carried by The Queen’s Company, 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards, in procession to the Royal Navy's state gun carriage.
The gun carriage, drawn by 142 Royal Navy service personnel, set off shortly after – followed on foot by the King and members of the Royal Family.
The state funeral got under way at around 11am and was brought to its final moments by the sounding of The Last Post followed by a national two-minute silence.
Reveille, the National Anthem and a lament, played by the Queen’s Piper, then brought the state funeral service to an end at approximately noon.
After proceedings concluded in the historic abbey, the procession off for Wellington Arch at Hyde Park Corner.
The state hearse will later depart on its journey to Windsor as the parade gives a royal salute and the National Anthem is played.
The King, joined by Queen Consort Camilla and other members of the Royal Family, will then depart for Windsor by car.
