‘Gog And Magog, Giants in the Guildhall’ a talk by John Clark, now Emeritus Academic in the Museum of London .

This talk is on the 7^thFebruary 2019 in the Village hall at 8.00pm.

Gog and Magog were reputedly two giants chained to the palace of Brutus on the current site of the Guildhall.

The original statues were destroyed in the great fire of London, being replaced in 1708. These were in turn destroyed in the Blitz and replaced in 1953.

These apparent mythical gods were also noted in the bible in the book of Ezekiel.

No doubt John Clark will reveal all in his talk
