Members of the Worshipful Company of Carmen drive their historic carts and vehicles to Guildhall, in the City of London, for the annual Cart Marking Ceremony. The tradition, originating in the licensing of vehicles for hire in the 17th century, sees each vehicle branded with a letter to mark its official licensed status.
