- symbolism -
In heraldry a dragon is symbolic of great courage and protection. With his sharp eye, he is the valiant guardian of treasures and is the bravest of all the creatures.
In London, where the historic City of London gates once stood, the Victorian era sculpture of a dragon serves as a protective guardian of the treasures of London.

This is the crest of the Wright family of Essex, according to research in British heraldry.  The name Wright is an occupational surname that originated in England and was derived from the Old English word wryhta or wyrhta, meaning worker or shaper of wood, woodworker, carpenter, and craftsman. Wright is still used in Scottish English in the original meaning of skilled woodworker.
