This week, The King and Queen will spend time at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh, Scotland as part of Royal Week, which celebrates Scottish culture, achievements and community.
HM King Charles III and Queen Camilla, along with the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, welcomed around 8,000 Scots to the gardens of Holyroodhouse.
The Royal Company of Archers functions as the Sovereign's 'Body Guard in Scotland'. It performs duties at the request of The King at any State and ceremonial occasion taking place in Scotland. The Royal Company also provided a guard on vigil during Queen Elizabeth II lying-in-state. The Royal Company's most regular duty is to be in attendance at His Majesty's annual garden party at the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Apart from its role as the Sovereign's bodyguard, the Royal Company of Archers still functions as an archery club - the purpose for which it was originally formed in 1676.
In return for being endowed with "perpetual access to all public butts, plains and pasturages legally allotted for shooting arrows", including the grounds at the Palace at Holyroodhouse, the Royal Company is required to present to the Sovereign three barbed arrows on request.
Members of the Royal Company must be Scots or have strong Scottish connections. Membership is by election. The structure of the organisation is divided between officers and members.
By seniority, the officers comprise one Captain-General, four Captains, four Lieutenants, four Ensigns and twelve Brigadiers.
Members of the Royal Company of Archers wear a distinctive uniform. It features a dark green tunic with black facings, dark green trousers with black and crimson stripe, and a Balmoral bonnet with the Royal Company's badge and an eagle feather.

Hello & welcome to Scottish Journeys. I enjoy going for walks, travelling & general sightseeing. I created this RU-vid channel so I could share my journeys with you virtually. Every week, I will share videos of my leisurely strolls and bus journeys throughout Scotland (plus the occasional bagpipe video). My videos offer a serene and tranquil experience, with no background music or commentary, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the calming ambience of nature. Through my lens, you can appreciate the beauty of my home country of Scotland and perhaps find inspiration for your next walk or holiday.
Most of my videos are filmed in first person perspective as a virtual walking tour or bus ride in crystal clear 4K HDR High Definition using 3D Binaural Audio 🎧 so you can experience these places as if you were there with me.
Thank you for visiting my channel, and I hope you enjoy my travels.
