But on Tuesday she met with Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby at Windsor Castle and did not need her cane.

A source told The Sun, “The Queen has enjoyed being on her horse again. Riding again is a wonderful sign after those worries about her health. To do so at 96 is pretty remarkable.”

Her Majesty was given a pony at the age of three in 1929, and she has been a racehorse owner and breeder during her adult years.

Her Majesty is hoping to make her annual trip to Scotland for Holyrood Week but a decision will be taken closer to the time, Buckingham Palace has said.
