The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have visited the 1st Battalion Irish Guards at their barracks in Aldershot to celebrate St Patrick's Day.

The duchess presented sprigs of shamrock to some 300 soldiers on parade and Irish wolfhound Domhnall - the regiment's mascot.

Prince William was made an honorary colonel of the regiment in 2011.

The event, at Mons Barracks, dates back to 1901.

The presentation of the shamrocks was previously performed by the late Queen Mother.
