The town of Lewes in southern England is one of many to hold a Guy Fawkes or Bonfire Night celebration on November 5, but is particularly known for making elaborate effigies that are paraded in front of big crowds. Here, an effigy of Fawkes sits atop a bonfire that will be lit later that night.

While traditionally an effigy of Fawkes is set alight, to recall a 400-year-old plot to blow up Parliament, in recent years, a series of more current characters has also been put on show in Lewes. Here, Donald Trump's proposed Mexican wall has been lined up alongside a bust of Fawkes.

This effigy portrays the Republican presidential nominee as "Humpy Trumpty" sitting on his wall. Trump's proposal for a wall between Mexico and the United States has been a centerpiece of his campaign.

An effigy of Trump dressed as a clown riding a donkey is paraded down the street on November 5 in Lewes. After the procession, the crowds -- and their giant effigies -- disperse toward several separate bonfire parties, where the figures are blown apart by fireworks.
