Ancient Livery Companies of the City: stories of a cat, swans & a rhinoceros.

Liveried guilds in the City thrived in mediaeval times, regulating trade and setting standards for their members’ work. Many of these companies survive today and several have occupied the same property for over 600 years. Discover which companies are ‘at sixes and sevens’, where you might find a genuine Unicorn’s horn and why the earth should lie heavy on Sir John Vanburgh.
