120-metre long (393 foot) wooden sculpture of 17th century London burn in flames to mark the 350th anniversary of the Great Fire of London.
The sculpture of the city was set alight on the Thames between Waterloo bridge and Blackfriars bridge as part of the London’s Burning festival, held from 30 August to 4 September.
The Great Fire of London began on September 2, 1666, and raged for four days. More than 13,000 buildings, including the old St Paul’s Cathedral, were destroyed in the flames.
