From where are they usually fired?In London, salutes are fired from the Tower of London, and also either Hyde Park or Green Park, depending on the occasion.
In the case of Prince Philip's death, gun salutes were fired at the following locations:
Belfast, Hillsborough Castle, 105th Regiment Royal Artillery
Cardiff, Cardiff Castle, 104th Regiment Royal Artillery
Edinburgh, Edinburgh Castle, 105th Regiment Royal Artillery
Gibraltar, The Royal Gibraltar Regiment
London, Woolwich Barracks, The King’s Troop, Royal Horse Artillery
London, HM Tower of London, The Honourable Artillery Company
HMNB Devonport, HMNB Devonport
HMNB Portsmouth, HMNB Portsmouth
Ships at sea: HMS Diamond, HMS Montrose
Why the number 41?
The traditional number of gun salutes is 21. The number is a multiplication of what the Royal Navy would normally do at sea.
An extra 20 guns is added when the salute is given from a Royal Park or setting. Hence, the 41-gun salute.
