FindmyPast (www.findmypast.co.uk) has announced that it is making its newspapers collection available free during the mourning period for the Queen, whose funeral is on Monday. You'll need to have a basic free subscription to access the site - the newspaper records are at https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search/british-newspapers.
The site hosts the same records as the British Newspaper Archive (www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk), which has a better basic search facility, which may help - if you have a hit from a search, you can then look for the original image on FindmyPast.
