There were ‘even the Queen’s grandchildren, Beatrice and Eugenie’ on the shelves, reports The Sun.

Rangers cleared the remains of a campfire and litter, sharing pictures of the mess left behind, describing the tidy-up as a ‘typical start’ to the week.
Prince Albert’s cairn, shaped as a pyramid, is the largest of the 11 memorials on the estate and was built by Queen Victoria in tribute to her husband, who died in 1861.
