 ymen drive herds of sheep across Southwark Bridge into the City? It is a un
 ique event that celebrates the rich heritage of our city\, and we want you 
 to join us to take part in 2026!Dating back to medieval times\, shepherds w
 ould bring their sheep into the City of London to sell them at market. Free
 men of the City were excused from the bridge toll that applied to other peo
 ple crossing the bridge in recognition of their status as local traders. In
  2013 the Worshipful Company of Woolmen resurrected this ancient right for 
 charitable purposes\, and the event was so successful that it has continued
  ever since. This year\, the Master invites you to join him in taking part 
 in this fabulous tradition on Sunday 27th September 2026.\n*Please note tha

 nt. These images may be used by the Guild for marketing and promotional pur
