Queen Elizabeth's coffin lowered into vault ahead of private burial
Summary by Ground News
The first state funeral since Winston Churchill's was filled with spectacle. 142 Royal Navy sailors used ropes to draw the gun carriage carrying her flag-draped coffin to Westminster Abbey. The coffin was followed into the church by generations of Elizabeth's descendants, including King Charles III, heir to the throne Prince William and 9-year-old George.
