Lighting of Principal Beacon Windsor Castle Queen's 90th Birthday










































On the evening of her Birthday, The Queen accompanied by Prince Philip, The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall, lit the Principal Beacon. 

Situated outside the Cambridge Gate of Windsor Castle, large crowds gathered. the Prince gave a moving speech to the Queen 'Mummy', and gave three cheers.

Once the Beacon got going (after a very smokey start!) it was certainly impressive!!
