First female Beefeater is from Argyll

[Tom B]

The Tower of London's first female beefeater has joined her new colleagues publicly for the first time.
Moira Cameron, 42, from Argyll in Scotland, said she was "immensely proud" to have secured the role which she will take up in July.

She appeared in her present warrant officer 2 uniform, but will be measured up for her £1,000 beefeater uniform when she starts the post.

Her job will involve giving guided tours and guarding the Crown Jewels.

In order to fulfil her role as tour guide Ms Cameron must learn all about the Tower's 900-year history.
