The Prince of Wales steps forward to help dress the King in the golden brocaded cloak, the imperial mantle – or robe royal. Gun salutes at the Tower of London are fired by the Honourable Artillery Company, and at all saluting stations throughout the UK, Gibraltar, Bermuda, and ships at sea. After a blessing, the King is enthroned on his throne chair. The Archbishop of Canterbury conducted the service, a duty which has been undertaken since the Conquest in 1066. For the first time in 1953, a representative of another Church, the Moderator of the Church of Scotland, also took part. Teessiders are set to join millions across the UK in celebrating the Coronation of King Charles III.
No high street names have announced special closures over the Bank Holiday weekend, unlike when many supermarkets and stores closed as a mark of respect on the day of Queen Elizabeth II's funeral. Due to being a bank holiday, shops may operate on different opening and closing hours, and each shop's times may differ.The archbishop pays homage, followed by the Prince of Wales's homage of royal blood, and then the new homage of the people takes place. The King takes off his crimson robe of state and wears a simple white shirt for the private anointing with holy oil in the coronation chair behind a screen, in the most sacred part of the ceremony.
Brambles Farm Social Club is welcoming the community to their King's Coronation Family Fun Day Weekend, on the Saturday and Sunday of the bank holiday weekend from 12pm until 8pm. The events will have everything from inflatables, assault courses, stalls, face painters and crafts. The King puts on the stole royal – a long, narrow embroidered band of gold silk which goes around the shoulders, mirroring outfits worn by a priest or a bishop. Last year, countless people across Teesside came together in their communities to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II, and local councils have announced plans to commemorate the Coronation. So what are they key dates, plans and events going on across Teesside over the Bank Holiday weekend? Here's everything you need to know. The principal decorations for the processional route were in The Mall where there were four twin-spanned arches of tubular steel that were illuminated at night. The arches were lifted into place by giant mobile cranes. Linking the arches down the route were the long lines of standards mounted with golden crowns and each hung with four scarlet banners bearing the Royal Monogram. The first overseas tour The Queen undertook after the Coronation was to Bermuda, Jamaica, Panama, Fiji, Tonga and New Zealand starting in November 1953. HM returned in 1954 visiting Australia, Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) Aden and Uganda – going home in Britannia from Aden via Malta and Gibraltar.The King takes off his crimson robe of state and wears a simple white shirt for the private anointing with holy oil in the coronation chair behind a screen, in the most sacred part of the ceremony. In the investiture, the King puts on a sleeveless white garment called the colobium sindonis, a shimmering gold-sleeved coat called the supertunica and a golden coronation girdle around his waist. On 24 June 1953, the Honours of Scotland (the crown, the sceptre and the sword) were carried before The Queen in a procession from the Palace of Holyroodhouse to St Giles Cathedral. During the recognition, the King stands in the coronation theatre and turns to show himself to the people at each of the four directions – east, south, west and north. He is presented with the coronation bible and takes the oath, and then prays aloud with the King's Prayer. According to the Government, official street parties which require road closures may need organisers to get in touch with their local councils at least six weeks beforehand to make sure this is possible. Councils may also need residents to fill out application forms to host a street party. Some people in the Abbey witnessed their fourth Coronation. Princess Marie Louise (Queen Victoria's granddaughter) had also seen the Coronations of King Edward VII (1902), King George V (1911) and King George VI (1937).
In a similar way to shops, public transport may also be affected, with buses and trains potentially running on a different time table which is common at times such as Easter and other bank holidays. There may be limited services across Teesside, and transport companies may announce changed to timetables nearer to the time. School resources The Queen succeeded to the Throne on the 6 February, 1952 on the death of her father, King George VI. She was in Kenya at the time and became the first Sovereign in over 200 years to accede while abroad. In 1937, the 11 year old Princess Elizabeth had watched her father, King George VI, crowned in the elaborate ceremony and 16 years later on 2 June 1953, her own official coronation was to take place. On Sunday, May 7, a special Coronation Concert will be staged and broadcast live at Windsor Castle by the BBC and on Monday, May 8, members of the public will be invited to take part in The Big Help Out, which will encourage people to try volunteering and join the work being undertaken to support their local areas.In the investiture, the King puts on a sleeveless white garment called the colobium sindonis, a shimmering gold-sleeved coat called the supertunica and a golden coronation girdle around his waist.
