The coronation of King Charles III will happen this Saturday at Westminster Abby, where more than 2,200 people will attend.

Australian Coach Builder, Jim Frecklington, has designed and built one of the carriages that will be used on the day to carry King Charles and Queen Camilla.

“They’ve asked to ride in the Diamond Jubilee State coach that I built in Manly in 2014,” Mr Frecklington told Ben.

“I’ve incorporated 100 pieces of historic material. So it’s really a time capsule of British history,” he said.
