The National Trust has announced all venues will be closed on Monday, September 19.

On the day of Her Majesty The Queen's funeral, National Trust houses, gardens, cafés and shops will all close as a mark of respect.

Coast and countryside car parks and pre-booked holiday cottages and campsites will remain open for visitors. 

Visitors are asked to check property homepages before you travel to avoid disappointment.

In and around Lancashire, Gawthorpe Hall in Padiham and Rufford Old Hall in West Lancashire will therefore be closed on Monday.

A select number of venues will also have condolence books to sign.

These places will have condolence books for people to sign from today during normal opening times.
