Description: | All the swans on the River Thames are owned by the monarch, though some were granted to the Vintners and Dyers Livery Companies. Each year the Livery Companies inspect their swans in a ceremony called swan-upping. Here swan-uppers from the Dyers' Company pose around the London Stone which marked the limit of jurisdiction of the City of London. | Subjects: | Boundary Stone Ceremony Custom And Tradition People (Posed) | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Taunt, Henry | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
