    Many organisations across the Harrogate district closed today as people paid their final respects to Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

    Streets were quiet and there was a sombre mood as the nation watched the state funeral at Westminster Abbey in London.

    Ripon Cathedral and Harrogate's Royal Hall broadcast the event live on big screens, as did numerous pubs and churches.

    Many other people watched the day's events unfold live on BBC One.

    Here are some photos taken during today's funeral capturing local tributes and the unusually quiet state of the district.
