The Gog and Magog statues stand proudly in Guildhall and play an important role in the respected Lord Mayor's show. These terrifying-looking wicker giants are marched to the front of the parade.  Their presence demonstrates that this grand occasion has a long history and many long-standing customs. They have been a part of the Lord Mayor's Show since the reign of Henry V.
