One of London's quirkiest annual traditions is baa-ck. On 28 September, the London Sheep Drive takes over Southwark Bridge, with 50 North of England Mule sheep herded across the city by Freemen of the City. And this year, farmer, author, and Countryfile presenter Adam Henson joins in on the fun.
The event celebrates living London history while raising a smile (and some cash for charity). The bridge closes to traffic, giving spectators front-row access to watch the flock amble over the Thames.
At the north end of the bridge, the livery fair runs alongside the drive from 10am to 4pm, featuring woollen goods, rare breed sheep, sheep shearing demos, and stalls from City livery companies. It's family-friendly, free, and utterly unforgettable.
