Mayfair puts out the flags for Diamond Jubilee

Union flags decorate Bruton Street

UNION flags and bunting have been put up across many Mayfair streets to help mark the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee.

HM The Queen was born, as Princess Elizabeth, at a house at 17 Bruton Street in 1926. She ascended to the throne following the death of her father in 1952.

Mayfair.org.uk went in search of decorations around Mayfair to mark the Queen’s sixty years as monarch.
