Miscellaneous Royal Facts . . Inside the Royal Mews . . ◼ Queen Victoria described it as ‘a small village which belongs to Buckingham Palace’ and it was here at the Royal Mews, which during her reign was home to some 200 horses, that her children learned to ride and where she established a school for the children of Royal Mews workers. . ▪ The Mews, which date back to the reign of Richard II when they were based on the site of the National Gallery in Trafalgar Square, were originally used to house the monarch’s falcons, but from the 16th century became stabling for horses. . ▪ The present Royal Family have made good use of them, and as children Prince Charles and Princess Anne were taken there by the Queen to feed sugar lumps to the horses. . ▪ From 1969 the Mews was home to Burmese, a gift to Elizabeth II from the Canadian Mounted Police and her regular mount for the Trooping of the Colour until 1986. . ▪ Several weeks ahead of the ceremony the Queen would practise riding side-saddle at the Mews. Although she now attends the ceremony in an open carriage, she still knows the name of every horse in the Mews. . . . #Miscellaneousroyalfacts #RoyalFacts #Facts #Royal #Mews #Horses #RoyalMews #TheRoyalMews #RoyalFamily #Royalty #HouseofWindsor #History #Heritage #Monarchy #ElizabethII #QueenElizabethII #HerMajesty #Britishmonarchy #London #BuckinghamPalace (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsWJAPWl7hM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=w6yy5rzah0l0

The Scottish State Coach . The Scottish State Coach is an enclosed, four horse-drawn carriage used by the Royal Family. . . ◼ The coach was built in 1830 for Prince Adolphus, Duke of Cambridge, (tenth child & seventh son of the British king George III & Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz) & his family used it for many years until they sold it to William Keppel, 7th Earl of Albemarle, who converted it into a semi-State landau. In 1920, the Keppel family returned the coach to the Royal Family by presenting it as a gift to Queen Mary. . ◼ Between 1968 & 1969, the coach was extensively remodelled & restored to its original enclosed state. Large glass windows & transparent panels in the roof were added, as well as the Royal Arms and the insignia of the Order of the Thistle being emblazoned onto it & a model of the Crown of Scotland was added on top of the roof. . ◼ The coach was used for the first time by Queen Elizabeth II during the opening of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in 1969; by Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother in 1977 during the thanksgiving service for her daughter's Silver Jubilee, & also in 1979 during her installation as Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports at Dover. . ◼ The Queen & the Duke of Edinburgh also used it at Windsor during the Queen's sixtieth birthday celebrations in 1986. The carriage was used for the Order of the Thistle service on at Edinburgh in 1994 & then as a reserve carriage for the State Visit of Harald V of Norway & Queen Sonja of Norway at Holyrood the following day. The carriage was used again in 2011 to chauffeur the Queen & Duke of Edinburgh at the Wedding of Prince William & Catherine Middleton. . ◼ The Coach is usually stored at the Royal Mews, London, where it can be seen by the public. From time to time, & for certain special events such as the Queen's Jubilee, the coach has been displayed in Scotland, at locations including the Palace of Hollyrood House. There have been calls to put the coach on permanent display in Scotland. .
