cortege

Crowds of people waited in silence for about 20 minutes ahead of the cortege's arrival to honour the firefighter, who lived in the town.

The streets of Leicester were lined by crowds who watched the cortege pass by, some throwing the white roses associated with his family.

Following the service, the funeral cortege will pass the Senedd in Cardiff Bay where he served as Presiding Officer - the Llywydd - for the first 12 years of devolution.

Ahead of Ms Prior's funeral, her colleagues lined the route along Duncombe Place as a piper and police horses led her cortege to the Minster for 11:00 GMT.

Crowds assembled at the stadium in October to pay respects as his funeral cortege went past en route to Sutton Coldfield Crematorium, where the service was held.
