Cockney Tradition

On the first Sunday in October, St Martin-in-the-Fields Church is packed for the Costermongers Harvest Festival Service. Costermongers were old London market traders who elected 'Pearly Kings and Queens' as represent-atives to safeguard their rights. These quintessential Cockney characters (a Cockney is a true indigenous Londoner) are a marvellous sight dressed in their traditional extravagant pearl-button suits.
