Baroness Thatcher's funeral: Your photos
- Published
BBC News website readers have been sending in their photos from Baroness Thatcher's funeral. The coffin had spent the night before the funeral at the Palace of Westminster. The Speaker's Chaplain, the Rev Rose Hudson-Wilkin, kept vigil in the Chapel throughout the night. John Walker was at Westminster to watch the coffin transferred to a hearse.
The coffin would later be transferred to a gun carriage. The WWI carriage had never been used in a funeral procession before, and will be named after Baroness Thatcher. Rian Kirchhoff took this photo from the Waldorf Hotel, Covent Garden
Alan Aiken was watching from Ludgate Circus. He said: "Slightly down the road from me a group of protesters were chanting and the crowd around me began clapping to drown them out."
Bands who played along the route of the funeral procession were from the Scots Guards and the Welsh Guards of the Household Division, the Royal Marines and the Royal Air Force, the Ministry of Defence said. Photo: Mona Wadhwani
Hayley Chalmers: "This police rider was at the back of the hearse cortege. Here he waits whilst the coffin is taken from the hearse into St Clement Danes. It struck me as a lovely representation of an individual showing respect."
Outside St Paul's Cathedral there was a Guard of Honour for the arrival of the coffin made up of members of the 1st Battalion Welsh Guards and the Welsh Guards Band. Photo: Mazhar Chaudhry

At the end of the service, the hearse left for the Royal Hospital, Chelsea. Will Crosthwait lives nearby and took this photo of the coffin arriving, noting how few people were there compared to the crowds earlier. You can send your photos to yourpics@bbc.co.uk.
