Introduction

The study and collecting of Provincial Banknotes has been part of notaphily for many years;
the notes themselves are treasured as much for their aesthetic appeal as their rarity and the
banks that issued them are names that have gone down in historymany are still fondly
remembered today. The subject of local banks and their notes appeals far beyond the
relatively narrow confines of the specialist banknote hobby with collectors ranging from
local historians through to bankers, all eager to own a little piece of history for themselves. As
their interest in the subject has grown so too has the need for information on this fascinating
subjecta need that Roger Outing has sought to cater for in the Standard Catalogue of the
Provincial Banknotes of England and Wales. Cataloguing the banks, and their note issues, has
been attempted in part before and there are many other worthy tomes on aspects of this
subject, but never has such a complete work as this Standard Catalogue made it to press. In
one volume the author has listed all the private and Joint Stock banks of England and Wales,
including those of London, and in doing so has provided a framework for the banknote
issues of these banks to be listed in as much detail as is currently known. This Standard
Catalogue has succeeded in filling a noticeable gap in the market and is certain to rapidly
become the standard reference book for this fascinating subject.
First published in book form in 2010, the hardback Standard Catalogue of the Provincial
Banknotes of England and Wales sold out of its initial print run within 12 months. Since then
collectors across the globe have asked whether or not the book will be reprinted, or indeed
when the second edition might be available. It has now been decided that the Standard
Catalogue will not be reprinted and the second edition is still some way offso to fill the
void the original book is now available in searchable pdf form. Exactly like the original
Catalogue, with the banks and their notes listed in alphabetical order in the first section and
cross referenced colour pictures in the second, this format is ideal for those who missed out
on the original printing or who just want a convenient way to store the vital information
that the Standard Catalogue contains.
This is an Adobe pdf version of the Standard Catalogue of the Provincial Banknotes of England
and Wales and will need Adobe Acrobat to be viewed, this is available from http://www.

Foreword
There have been many books published on various aspects of English banking history. Some
are banking histories of individual banks. Others are essentially banking law books that help to
describe the legal framework within which banks have to operate. Some are a scholarly analysis
of the historical development and functioning of the banking system. Just a few describe the
banks and their banknote issues. However, no single work attempts a complete listing of all the
banks of England and Wales, and their banknote issues, although some works give extensive
listings that deserve acknowledgement.
The Bankers Almanac has provided a detailed annual listing of banks since 1844 and which
continues to this day. Whilst this is appropriate for users who require current business information,
the historical listing of past banks is necessarily limited and banking origins are not fully dealt
with. Hilton Prices Handbook of London Bankers (1892) is a comprehensive and important listing
but, by definition, deals only with London. Geoffrey Grants, Standard Catalogue of Provincial
Banks & Banknotes (1972), the only work that lists banknotes issued, makes no reference to London
banks or to some provincial banks that did not issue notes. Country Banks of England & Wales by
Margaret Dawes and C. N. Ward-Perkins (2000) describes in useful detail the private banks, both
London and provincial, but does not list joint stock banks. British Banking by John Orbell and
Allison Turton (2001) is primarily a guide to archive records and does not attempt total coverage
of all known banks. Whilst it is recognised that each of the above makes a valuable contribution
none directly addresses the issue of providing a truly comprehensive listing of all known banks
of England and Wales.
It is readily acknowledged that all the above references have been rigorously plundered in
the preparation of this work. Acknowledgement has also to be given to the individual banking
histories, too numerous to mention individually, but shown in the bibliography. Thanks and
appreciation is extended to all.
A further important source has been the banknotes, cheques and banking memorabilia held by
the collecting community throughout the UK. Many collectors have been generous in allowing
access to their collections and sharing their knowledge of individual banking concerns. Their names
are recorded within the List of Contributors. Private collectors have often been responsible for
the preservation of important material long before other parties have demonstrated any interest.
It should perhaps be more widely recognised that private collections of banknotes, cheques and
banking memorabilia represent a rich and varied archive of important historical material.
No other single work has attempted to list all the private and joint stock banks of England
and Wales. That is the primary purpose of this publication. This provides the framework for the
banknote issues of these banks to be listed in as much detail as is currently known. Further work
still remains to be done in the identification and cataloguing of the banknote issues. It is hoped
that this catalogue will stimulate further analysis and more accurate recording to inform any
improved future publication.

English Banking History:


an overview
Goldsmith-Bankers
The origins of English banking can be found in the activities of the goldsmith-bankers of
London during the period 1650 to 1700. By the nature of their trade the shops of goldsmiths
provided a convenient safe location for the temporary deposit of the valuables and money of
wealthy customers. The more astute of the goldsmiths realised that the money left in their safe
custody could be loaned out to others and a charge made for this loan. Some goldsmiths began to
offer payment of interest for any money deposited with them and would then loan out the money
at a higher rate of interest. In this way one of the fundamental principles of modern banking, the
lending out of other peoples money at a profit to yourself, was thereby discovered by goldsmithbankers.
In accepting a deposit it was quite natural for a receipt to be issued to the depositor. This receipt
would be presented to the goldsmith-banker when the depositor wished to reclaim the whole or
part of any deposit. These receipts were often written in the manner of a promise to pay issued
by the goldsmith banker and this was the precursor of the banknote. Where these promises to
pay were made payable to bearer there was an encouragement for these notes to be passed
from hand to hand in payment of debts. They were the first practical circulation of English paper
money.
The goldsmith-bankers also discovered how to accommodate the active use of these deposit
accounts with the use of drawn notes. Any depositor could write out a short note to their
goldsmith-banker asking for a specified sum of money to be paid from their account to a named
person.
This drawn note would then be presented by the named person at the goldsmith-bankers shop
and payment made. This was the precursor of the modern cheque. Drawn notes could be payable
to bearer or to order and, as the latter could be transferred by endorsement (e.g. a signature),
they also performed the role of circulating money.
An example of a drawn note (or cheque) is shown at Fig. 1. This is dated (16)88 and is addressed
to Mr Rogers who, in partnership with Francis Child, was a goldsmith banker in Fleet Street.
It states Pray pay to my sister Lyttleton or order eight pounds and put it to the account of your loving
friend, Henry Fairfax. It is signed Eliz. Lyttleton on the back (not shown) as indication that
she received the money. It is clear that by the 1670s and 1680s the London goldsmith-bankers
accepted deposits on which they paid interest, made loans from the funds supplied by such
deposits, issued promissory notes (or banknotes), and allowed depositors to access their accounts
by use of drawn notes (or cheques). These are the main functions that underpin modern day
deposit banking.
1

The Standard Catalogue of the Provincial Banknotes of England & Wales


This was all achieved without any regulation or supervision from the state or other regulatory
body. The goldsmith-bankers were constrained only by the general practice of merchants as
interpreted and applied by the Common Law of England.

Fig. 1. A drawn note (or cheque) addressed to the goldsmith banker, Mr Rogers
in 1888 six years before the Bank of England was established.

This amalgamation of the distinct functions of deposits, loans, banknotes and cheques into a single
business enterprise, e.g. a bank, was the unique contribution of the London goldsmith-bankers.
They were the initiators of modern banking and so supplied one of the essential precursors of the
modern capitalist nation state.
Bank of England
The Bank of England was established by Act of Parliament in 1694. The history of the Bank has
been well told elsewhere and there is little need for repetition here. It needs only to be noted that
when the Bank started their banking business they simply duplicated the methods and procedures
already being used by the goldsmith-bankers. They accepted deposits, made loans, issued notes
(of varying types) and allowed depositors to access their accounts by use of cheques. The Bank of
England invented very little. The Governor and Company is proof of the slightly perverse truth
that the best way to innovate is not to be the first to do it. The distinctive and authoritative name
of the Bank was, with hindsight, a subtle and brilliant piece of unintentional marketing the first
bank to be named after a sovereign State.
The Bank of England always had close connections with the Government and made use of this
to attract to themselves concessions and privileges. In particular in 1708 they were granted a
monopoly of joint stock banking when other banks were effectively prohibited from having
more than six partners. This meant that all their competitors, in London or the provinces, were
restricted to six partners. This provision effectively shaped the development of English banking
for over 100 years and was not repealed until 1826, after which joint stock banks other than the
Bank of England were permitted. Bank of England banknote issues are well recorded elsewhere
and are therefore not listed here, although the location and dates of branches of the Bank are
recorded within this catalogue.
London Private Banks
By 1720 banking had become a distinct specialist business and was no longer carried on as an
adjunct to some other trade, e.g. goldsmith. Several famous names from this period have survived

into the modern banking era. Coutts & Co (est. 1692) and Child & Co (est. c. 1665) still function
from their original London sites albeit as branches of modern banking corporations. One bank,
Hoare & Co (est. 1673) still survives as a family concern a remarkable continuous business
record.
Figure 2 shows a banknote issued by Francis Child in 1735. The denomination of 1025 is hand
written as was the common practice at the time. It should be noted that this item was issued and
signed by the bank and is a promise of the bank to pay on demand. This distinguishes it from
the drawn note shown at Fig. 1 that originates from an account holder of the bank and requests
the bank to make a payment of a specified sum of money to a named person. A banknote is a
promissory note (I promise to pay) issued by a banker. A cheque is a written instruction
addressed to a banker requesting payment from an account.

Fig. 2 . Francis Child, printed banknote for 1025 and dated 1735.

The London private banks made full use of deposit accounts manipulated by the growing use
of cheques. The use of cheques developed to such an extent that by the end of the 18th century
cheque clearing procedures were established in the Old Post Office, Lombard St. These chequeclearing procedures achieved considerable economy in the use of cheques and membership of
London Clearing became highly prized. Use of cheques quickly expanded and by the mid 19th
century they had largely displaced the previously widespread use of bills of exchange as well as
reducing the banknote and coin issues to subsidiary status. By the 1870s most business finance
was conducted by the use of cheques in conjunction with a current account.
London private banks also issued their own promissory notes or banknotes. However the story
here is very different as their banknote issues slowly reduced throughout the 18th century. By
the 1770s most London banks had ceased the issue of banknotes. There were two reasons for
this. Firstly, the growing use of cheques, and their efficient administration by the banks, reduced
the demand from account holders for banknotes. Secondly, Bank of England notes circulated
widely in London and these were increasingly used by the London banks to meet any demand
for banknotes.
As a consequence banknote issues from any London private bank will be difficult to find. Notes
from Child & Co (est. c. 1665) and Lemon, Buller, Furley, Lubbock & Co (est. 1772) being the only
examples that might reasonably be expected to be found. The last known banknote issue of a
London private bank was Strange, Dashwood & Co (est. 1793) who issued 5gn, 10gn and 25gn
notes in 1803. These are rarely seen. Fig. 3 shows the 25gn note of 1803 from Strange, Dashwood
& Co.

Provincial Private Banks


Provincial private banks have a poor historical reputation, which is to a great extent quite
undeserved. Many banking histories originate from or were commissioned by the later joint
stock banking companies. It may be the case that they had a vested interest in emphasising
their own illustrious contribution and then minimising the innovations and achievements of the
private banks.
These banks performed an invaluable function in supporting the commencement of the English
industrial revolution. They did so at a time when the Bank of England never stirred itself from
the confines of Threadneedle Street and when London private banks were completely focussed on
London. With very limited exceptions the banks in London never made any attempt to establish
branches outside London.
Provincial private banks developed banking practices and procedures and familiarised the
emerging business community with what we would today refer to as financial services. The
subsequent failures of private banks, of which there were plenty, were a consequence of the fact
that they were operating at the very edge of economic and commercial innovation and their
size was limited to six partners in order to protect the Bank of England from competition. The
provincial private banks were creating the business of banking and doing so under artificial
constraints. Failures in these circumstances should not be a surprise.
Whilst there were plenty of failures it can be easily overlooked that a great many private banks
did prosper for long periods. They often went on to provide the foundation upon which joint
stock banks could subsequently build and become successful. Private banks were the essential
precursors to joint stock banks. Private banks and joint stock banks together should be regarded
as sequential developments within a single system of banking that developed over a 200-year
period.

This tells a quite remarkable story in that none of these five innovators failed. They all maintained
their commercial viability and independence for several generations. These private banks then
became part of the joint stock movement in the latter half of the 19th century, and so established
themselves within the modern banking institutions with which we are familiar. These private
banks were an essential part of the origins of the modern banking system and should not be
regarded merely as a failed relic of past economic development.
Each of the Original Big Five issued their own banknotes and provided account facilities
serviced by the use of cheques. Their early banknotes or cheques rarely become available to
collectors although 19th century examples can be found. Fig. 4 shows an 80 note issued by
Abel Smith, a Nottingham banker, in 1735. The corner bearing the signature has been torn away
as an indication that the note has been paid and is therefore cancelled. This cut cancellation
procedure as a means of cancelling a banknote can be found on many later provincial notes.

Fig. 4. Abel Smith, Nottingham, 80 banknote of 1735. With signature torn away as form of cancellation.

The subsequent growth in numbers of provincial private banks can be summarised as follows:

1750 12 provincial banks.


1797 230 provincial banks.
1810 721 provincial banks.

The Standard Catalogue of the Provincial Banknotes of England & Wales


Clearly there was an explosive expansion in the provision of banking facilities throughout
provincial England and Wales. By 1820 every town of substance had its own local bank with its
own local banknote issues. It is from this period that material becomes available to present day
collectors
The Bankers Licence
From 1808 Banks were required to have a Bankers Licence. This was purely an expedient for
raising revenue and in no way implied any regulation or control of the Bank. Anyone could
have a licence upon application and the payment of a fee. The Bankers Licence recorded the
partners full names and the address of any banking premises that issued banknotes. Extra fees
were payable for additional locations up to a maximum of four. Maximum fees were payable
once four separate locations were listed and then additional locations could be added without
extra cost. Some banks added extra addresses to their Bankers Licence when these were no
more than proposals and which never came to fruition. Therefore, because a Bankers Licence
lists a location as issuing banknotes it cannot be assumed that they actually did so. The first four
locations shown almost certainly did issue banknotes but confirmation of issue must be sought
for all additional listings.
The Bankers Licence appears to be the only place where the partners names are reliably and
accurately listed. It should be particularly noted that there was no legal requirement for the
banknotes to list the current partners names and sometimes they did not do so. Occasionally
partners names continued to be used after the partner had died or retired. On other occasions
some partners names were not shown on the banknote. The use of & Co to conclude a list of
partners names implies further partners but often this was not the case it was sometimes just
an affectation.
Bankers Licences were applied for and issued on an annual basis. A licence was only required
if a Bank issued banknotes. London private banks had no need to apply for a Bankers Licence
as they had ceased the issue of notes. Consequently London private bankers did not have to
supply any official record of their partners. The same applied to provincial private banks that
did not issue banknotes. It must also be remembered that the lapsing of a Bankers Licence could
represent either the closure of the bank or merely the ending of a banks banknote issue, with the
bank continuing. Any assessment of the English banking system based upon Banking Licences
must be approached with some caution.

English Banking History: an overview


Other Restrictions
Apart from being limited to six partners and the requirement to have a bankers licence there
were virtually no restrictions on banks and their banknote issue. Anyone could establish a bank
anywhere in England and Wales and then issue as many banknotes as they wished.

Fig. 5. John Wilcocks, Sons & Co. Western Bank, Exeter. 1 note of 1809. Notes
below 5 denomination were only permitted between 1797 and 1825.

Banknotes could be printed in any denomination until legislation in 1777 prohibited banknotes
below 5. From 1797 to 1825 banknotes of 1 (or 1 guinea) denomination were allowed as a
temporary measure because of the financial strain caused by the wars against France. Fig. 5
shows the 1809 1 note of Wilcocks, Sons & Co of Exeter the black hand stamps relate to the
payment of dividends after the banks failure in 1810. After 1825 5 was the declared minimum
denomination and notes of lower denomination were not issued again until the 20th century.
There were no other restrictions on banknote issue, by provincial or London private banks, until
the Bank Charter Act 1844. Any quantity of notes in any denomination above the 5 minimum
(when this applied) could be issued from any private banking premises in England & Wales.
However, restrictions were placed on joint stock banks.
Joint Stock Banks
A Joint Stock enterprise is where a group of individuals could each purchase a share of the
company, and become shareholders, and then receive a dividend payment in proportion to the
number of shares held. Prior to 1826 banks were generally held to be precluded from this form
of company organisation. In 1826 legislation was introduced which allowed joint stock banks to
be established. However, if you purchased shares in a joint stock bank there was, quite literally,
no limit to your financial liability if the bank failed. There was, at this early stage, no limited
liability.
A restriction was placed on joint stock banks that issued banknotes and these could not be
established within 65 miles of London. The legal position regarding joint stock banks within
65 miles of London and which did not issue notes was ambiguous. Consequently no joint stock
banks were established in London during this early period. Early joint stock banks did come into
being in various provincial towns and initially functioned in a manner that was little different to
the private banks. Being more than 25 miles from London all these early provincial joint stock
banks issued their own bank notes. At the same time the Bank of England was authorised to open
provincial branches and a relatively small number subsequently appeared and began to issue
their own branch notes.

It is noteworthy and somewhat ironic that the very first joint stock bank, Stuckeys Banking Co. of
Langport and Bridgewater in Somerset, was in fact a converted private bank. All the other banks
listed were new banks and further joint stock banking operations followed these early pioneers.
Shown at Fig. 6 is an 1830s 5 from the Norfolk & Norwich Bank at Swaffham one of the joint
stock banking pioneers.

Fig. 6. Norfolk & Norwich Joint Stock Banking Co Swaffham Branch. 5 note of 1830s. An
issue from one of the early provincial joint stock banks that were established after 1826.

In 1833 further legislation renewed the Bank of Englands charter, declared Bank of England notes to
be legal tender for the first time and specifically stated that none-issuing joint stock banks could be
established within 65 miles of London. This opened the way for the commencement of joint stock
banking in London.
The first London joint stock bank was the London and Westminster Bank that was established in
1834. This was the birth of the Westminster Bank Ltd that we now know as NatWest. Being within
25 miles of London none of the London joint stock banks issued their own banknotes. In future any
provincial joint stock bank that opened a functioning branch (as opposed to an administrative office)
within London would have to relinquish the right to issue notes.
By the 1830s it was being appreciated for the first time that it was possible to run a profitable banking
business by offering deposit account facilities that were accessed by cheques, without the need
for a banknote issue. The importance of cheques in providing an alternative money supply quite
independent of gold, or banknotes supported by gold, had been largely overlooked up to that time.
As the London joint stock banks did not issue banknotes, collectors have to find other items

that record their presence and functioning. Cheques are an obvious choice as they record the
distinctive feature of the London joint stock banks, namely their ability to function without a
banknote issue. Shown at Fig. 7 is a cheque of 1852 from the Marylebone Branch of the London
& Westminster Bank

1844 Banking Structure


By 1844 the banking structure in England was both complex and confusing. The following is a

In 1844 there were 442 different banks operating from 569 branches issuing a total of 30.4 million
in banknotes. Of this 30.4 million of circulating banknotes just 18.1 million was issued by the
Bank of England. 5.1 million of notes were issued by provincial private banks and 7.2 million
of notes were issued by the provincial joint stock banks. None of the joint stock banks that issued
notes could open branches in London. The London private banks could have issued notes but
elected not to do so. This was a very complex system.

The 1844 Act
The weaknesses, inadequacies and inherent conflicts of the banking structure were debated at
considerable length. In 1844 the Bank Charter Act was passed and this legislation still applies to
and defines the English banking system today. The following provisions of the Act are relevant
here:
No more banks of issue could be established;
Banknote circulation of existing provincial banks frozen at 1844 levels;
A provincial bank would lose its banknote issues if it opened a branch in London, through
amalgamation or otherwise;
If a joint stock bank took over a private bank only the banknote issues of the absorbing
bank (if any) could be retained.
If any bank of issue closed then its banknote issues would lapse.
The intention of these provisions was to restrict and eventually remove all banknote issues other
than the Bank of England. It was expected that the private banks would close or be taken over
by joint stock banks; and that joint stock banks would in turn want to establish London branches.
In such events the banknote issues would have to be relinquished. This was what, more or less,
went on to occur although it took many decades for the process to be completed. Banknotes
continued to be issued by provincial banks for a further 80 years or so. The final private bank
issue of Fox & Co of Wellington (est. 1787) was not relinquished until 1921.
Slow Development
Development of joint stock banking after 1844 was slow and further legislative refinement was
required. It is important to emphasise that the joint stock banks thus far still did not enjoy any
limited liability in the event of a banking failure the shareholders were liable to the full limit of
their resources. Until the 19th century the notion of limited liability was not generally available
to any form of business. Even when the concept was first introduced banks were specifically
excluded from the provisions. Eventually, in the 1860s, banks were finally allowed limited liability
provided that they published their accounts.
Surprising as it may sound the publication of accounts was something of a novelty at this time.
Private banks would never dream of such a thing after all they were private. There was also
some resistance to the notion from certain joint stock banks.
It was perhaps for this reason that only a few banks initially took advantage of this limited liability
provision. Eventually in the 1870s, after some significant banking failures had bankrupted many
shareholders, the banks did increasingly begin to adopt limited liability status. Fig. 8 shows the
Carlisle City & District 5 of 1883 with limited added to the bank title. Accounts began to
be published for the first time and so the modern corporate banking structure slowly came into
existence. The addition of Limited to a banking company name may initially appear to be a
minor development but it was in fact a matter of some considerable significance.

the small but important addition of Limited in centre of note.

Amalgamation
A joint stock corporate structure protected by limited liability finally supported the development
of the major banking firms that came to dominate the next 100 years, namely: Barclays Bank,
Midland Bank, National Provincial Bank, Lloyds Bank, and Westminster Bank. The period from
1880 to 1920 was a period of almost continuous amalgamation, consolidation and expansion by
the joint stock Banks.
At the beginning of this amalgamation movement the banking structure in 1884 can be summarised
as follows:

The Standard Catalogue of the Provincial Banknotes of England & Wales


In comparison with the position in 1844 (see Table 3) there has been a 26% reduction (442 to 326)
in the number of different banks but a 264% increase (569 to 2,075) in the number of branches.
There had clearly been a vast increase in the provision of banking facilities to the public but
this was now being provided by fewer banks. This feature of steadily increasing numbers of
branches being provided by an ever-decreasing number of banks would accelerate in the next
two decades.
Also the banknote issues of the provincial banks (private and joint stock) had reduced by 72% to
a combined total of 2.9 million whilst the Bank of England issues had increased by 38% to 25.1
million. By this time banknotes were becoming a subsidiary element of the money supply. The
entitlement to issue banknotes was no longer the essential element of the banking business that it
had been 100 years previously. Cheques had now replaced the banknote as the major medium of
settlement, especially in the business world. It could be said that coins were the small change to
banknotes, and that banknotes were the small change to cheques.
The 1844 Act provided the first direct control of the banknote issues of the country at a time when
the banknote issue had largely lost its previous significance. The Act completely overlooked
the fact that by this time business and trade were largely conducted through current accounts
and the use of cheques. Gold and silver coins and banknotes were the small change of business.
The specific provisions of the Act that controlled Bank of England note issue were repeatedly
suspended at times of financial crisis which tends to suggest that restrictions on note issue were
of secondary importance by this time.
From 1880 onwards, following general adoption of limited liability status, there was a steady and
unrelenting process of amalgamation. For 40 years there was a complex and fascinating process
of take-over and amalgamation with joint stock banks taking over firstly the private banks but
latterly other joint stock banks. Banking was, and is, a business process that responds readily to
economies of scale the bigger you are the cheaper you can provide services and therefore the
more competitive you are in delivering those services. Stated very simply, the bigger fish ate all
the smaller fish and then the big fish ate each other until there were just five. By the 1920s the
Big Five Banks of Barclays Bank, Lloyds Bank, Midland Bank, National Provincial Bank and
Westminster Bank controlled some 80% of all retail banking in England and Wales. A handful of
smaller regional banks made up the other 20%.
Banknotes do not usually record the process of amalgamation between two banks. However
cheques do invariably record such events. Shown at Fig. 9 is a cheque originally printed for

Fig. 9. A cheque from London County Banking Co Ltd overprinted with London County &
Westminster Bank Ltd recording the amalgamation of two major joint stock banks in 1909

12

English Banking History: an overview


the London & County Banking Company Ltd that has been overprinted by a new bank title of
London County & Westminster Bank Ltd. This was because of the 1909 amalgamation between
the two major joint stock banks, London & Westminster Bank and London & County Bank. This
was one of the major developments that led to the creation of Westminster Bank Ltd, and now
known as Nat West.
It is important to emphasise that whilst the number of Banks was reducing from hundreds to less
than a dozen the number of Branches was increasing immensely. The Big Five Banks achieved
their 80% market share by maintaining approximately 12,000 different branches between them.
Whilst there were far fewer banking companies there was a vastly expanded network of branches
all providing a banking service for the public. The classic English branch banking system with
which we are familiar today had come into existence.
The Modern Era
By 1928 the logical conclusion of amalgamation was reached. Five large banks, each with a national
network of branches, now dominated English banking. An informal agreement had been reached
that no further amalgamations would be attempted. The Big Five of Barclays Bank, Lloyds
Bank, Midland Bank, National Provincial Bank and Westminster Bank, provided comprehensive
banking services to the whole population through the many thousands of their branches that
now covered the entire country. There were also half a dozen smaller regional banks operating
alongside the Big Five. For many decades throughout the 20th century this was the accepted
and almost unquestioned banking landscape in England and Wales.
The Bank of England had by now become the national central bank, functioned as lender of last
resort and had the monopoly of banknote issue across the whole country. It was still notionally
a private company and was not nationalised until 1946. Its banknotes were legal tender and
universally accepted. The phrase, as safe as the Bank of England became part of the national
consciousness.
In 1968 the National Provincial Bank and the Westminster Bank, after prolonged debate and
discussion, were allowed to amalgamate and become National Westminster Bank Ltd. Also in
the same year Martins Bank amalgamated with Barclays Bank. The Big Five now became the
Big Four.
By the 1990s the Big Four found that their supremacy in the English banking system was
being challenged. A combination of building societies transforming themselves into banks,
retail organisations providing banking services and the genesis of Internet banking all led to the
creation of a new banking market. National banks are now realising that they have to achieve an
international dimension to their business if they are to be competitive in the global economy.
The banking system, national and international, is now principally enabled by 21st century
electronic communications technology. Computer servers and the Internet have become the
equivilent of the Victorian banking house. Consequently the banknotes and cheques that are
so treasured by collectors are now largely being replaced by the medium of electronic monetary
transfer.
However the dangers and risks attached to the international banking network have been
graphically demonstrated by the banking crisis of 2008. Banking failures are not a historical
curiosity. They are a present day practical reality and the world has been obliged to re-learn
the principles of banking that were first developed over 200 years ago. In forming a collection
of banknotes, cheques and other banking memorablia the collector is recording the history and
development of those who succeeded as well as marking the demise of those who failed.

The Standard Catalogue of the Provincial Banknotes of England & Wales


Collecting
This catalogue is intended to inform those wishing to create a collection of banknotes issued
by the banks of England & Wales. However it is becoming ever more widely appreciated that
banknotes are just one artefact that the English banking system produced.
This book will also support the growing number of cheque collectors (of which the author is one).
Whilst cheques are not catalogued, this listing of all English banks will hopefully prove to be of
great assistance to cheque collectors. A framework is now provided whereby the significance of
cheques can be assessed in the context of the system as a whole.
What of other banking memorabilia? Bills of exchange, receipts, pass books, Acts of parliament
relating to banking, banking history books (often produced by the Banks), home safes, banking
letters, travellers cheques and Annual Reports from Banks are all items that deserve a place in any
significant collection of banking memorabilia. With the summary of the historical development
of the banking structure provided by this book all these seemingly disparate items become part
of one single story the development of the English banking system.

Introduction to the Catalogue


Structure
The catalogue has a simple structure of an alphabetical listing of all relevent towns with the banks
for each town then listed according to date order of their establishment. There are four separate
sections:
Section 1. Lists the banks of England and Wales excluding the London banks (Catalogue
Numbers 1 to 2460).
Section 2. Lists the London Banks in their date order (Catalogue Numbers 2500 to 2857).
Section 3. Lists the paper money issues of institutions that were not banks (Catalogue
Numbers 3001 to 3049).
Section 4. Lists Skit Notes (Catalogue Numbers 4001 to 4091).
There are gaps throughout the catalogue numbering sequence to allow for future additions with
the minimum of disruption.
A detailed Appendix lists all bank titles, partnership names and towns with reference to the
appropriate catalogue number.

Estimated values
Estimated values are the authors opinion of the current market value of a particular note. This
opinion is derived from prices realised at auction, dealers offer prices, other confirmed private
sales and a considered estimate of the existing demand and supply ratio. A price range is quoted
to allow for variation in condition of notes with better grade notes attracting a higher price. A
note in exceptionally high grade may well exceed the higher valuation quoted although this
needs to be individually assessed for each particular bank.
Considerable research effort has been directed at attempting accurate estimated values. However,
the main conclusion of this research effort is that for many items market prices display wide and
unpredictable variation. This situation seems unlikely to change. The estimated values provided
should be regarded as a general indication of relative values and will hopefully be a useful guide
but nothing more than that. Notes of exceptional quality or perceived rarity will always attract
their own individual valuation. It should also be noted that the appearance of even quite a small
hoard of notes might well result in reductions in the market value of a particular item.
The estimated values quoted in this catalogue are not to be construed as any form of offer to buy.
15

The Standard Catalogue of the Provincial Banknotes of England & Wales

Different Types
Provincial banknotes can be found in the following principal types:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

Issued and without any cancellation.


Issued and ink cancelled (hand written or with hand stamp).
Issued and cut cancelled (part of note cut away).
Issued and punch cancelled (punch holes in paper).
Unissued (a printed form without signature, numbers, etc.).
Specimen (similar to 5 above but with Specimen written, printed or perforated onto the
note. If it does not state Specimen then this catalogue does not describe it as such).
7. Proof (similar to 5 and 6 above but often produced on non-standard paper and sometimes
with hand written annotations).

The descriptions of ink cancelled; cut cancelled; punch cancelled; unissued; specimen; and
proof are used when appropriate and estimated values are offered for each.
IMPORTANT: Where there is no qualifying description then the banknote is issued and without
cancellation.
The relative merits of each of these types and their significance to a collection is entirely a matter
for each individual collector. Considerable energy can be expended, for little practical benefit, in
attempting to differentiate between unissued, specimen and proof. Each piece must be judged
on its own merits and a balanced judgement made bearing in mind that there were no standard
rules or common procedures that had to be followed. Each bank did whatever was practical and
pragmatic at the time. Collectors should adopt a similar approach today.
Where an issued note has been confirmed then the existence of the other types is always possible,
although they will not be recorded in the catalogue until confirmed. Where only an unissued or
proof or specimen example is known then the existence of an issued note cannot be assumed.
Where an issued and cancelled banknote is confirmed then an entry is also created for the issued
banknote without cancellation even though this may not have been seen.
Sometimes notes were prepared and printed for a partnership or bank title that was proposed but
never actually came into existence. Such notes are only found in unissued or proof form. These
items are indicated by quoting the name in italics.
Partnership names of private banks are quoted in the fullest form in which they are known. The
actual names printed on the banknotes are sometimes reduced from this full form and abbreviated,
e.g. the Thomas Young & Robert Young partnership becomes Thos. Young & Son on the
banknote. Where this occurs the shortened version, as appears on the banknote, is quoted in
parenthesis.
Where a banknote of any type has not been confirmed for a particular partnership or bank title
then Not Seen is recorded. Where a bank is confirmed as not being an issuer of banknotes then
None Issuer is recorded. It should be noted that it is quite possible for a None Issuer to have
prepared Proof or Specimen examples of banknotes and these will be recorded in the catalogue
as they are confirmed.
The definition of a banknote is, A promissory note issued by a banker and payable on demand.
Only items that fit this description are listed in the main catalogue section. Other notes, drafts or
bills issued by bankers, e.g. payable seven days after sight or payable to order, are not
listed.

Introduction to the Catalogue

Condition
The catalogue makes no specific reference to condition for individual notes but does provide a
range of estimated values to accommodate different grades of preservation.
Provincial banknotes are generally to be found in the grades of FINE or lower. The higher grades
of VERY FINE or above are usually exceptional cases or found on unissued or proof/specimen
examples. There are a few cases where higher grade issued notes do occasionally appear and
these will usually attract exceptional valuations.
The following grading descriptions are provided for general guidance:
UNCIRCULATED: No folds or creases. Corners sharp and square without evidence of rounding.
Paper clean, firm and without marks or discoloration. A perfectly preserved note.
EXTREMELY FINE: Maximum of three light folds or one strong crease. Paper clean, firm and
without discoloration. Corners sharp and square without evidence of rounding. A note
with evidence of light handling.
VERY FINE: May have several folds both vertically and horizontally. Paper has minimal visible
dirt. Paper still crisp. Edges and corners may show slight wear but no tears. A note with
more evidence of handling and wear.
FINE: Many folds, creases and wrinkling. Some surface dirt but not excessive, with paper now
becoming slightly soft. Edges and corners more worn and perhaps with minor tears that do
not extend into printed design. A few pinholes are acceptable but not other larger holes, e.g.
a hole at intersection of a repeated fold.
VERY GOOD: A well circulated note. Corners worn and rounded. More extensive surface
dirt and tears may extend into printed design. Pinholes usually present and larger holes
may also be present, especially at intersection of folds. No pieces missing other than those
deliberately cut away as a cancellation. Paper may be limp.
GOOD: A well worn and heavily circulated note. Strong multiple folds and creases, dirty and
stained, pinholes and larger holes. Paper very limp and small pieces may be missing due to
accidental damage.
FAIR: A limp, dirty and very heavily circulated note. Parts of design may be obscured, large
tears and pieces missing and holes are normally present.
POOR: Severe damage due to wear, staining, pieces missing, larger holes and with parts of
design obscured.
It is a feature of provincial banknotes that as a normal part of their contemporaneous use they
may have been:
Bisected and rejoined: many provincial banknotes will be found that have been cut into two
halves and then rejoined. This was done in order to despatch the half notes separately as a
security precaution against theft or loss. When the separation and rejoining is contemporary
this fact should be specifically mentioned after grading the note as indicated above.
Cancelled: where banknotes have been cut cancelled (e.g. pieces deliberately cut away); or have
hand stamps (e.g. bankruptcy, cancellation, etc.); or bear handwritten annotations, (names,
17

The Standard Catalogue of the Provincial Banknotes of England & Wales


numbers, place name, etc.); or have punch holes; then these factors should be separately and
specifically mentioned after grading the note as indicated above.
Trimmed: provincial banknotes often had their edges trimmed in order to reduce weight and
so reduce the cost of postage. This fact should be specifically mentioned after grading the
note as indicated above. A note that has been heavily trimmed into the design will usually
be graded lower.
When assessing and comparing the notes of a particular bank then those that are rejoined,
cancelled or trimmed will usually have a lower market value than notes that do not have these
features.

Illustrations
Illustrations of over 800 Provincial Banknotes are provided at the end of the catalogue. The
intention has been to provide a generally representative sample. Each catalogue entry that is
supported by an illustration is marked with a * symbol.

Section 2London Banks


Because the London banks have a distinctly separate historical identity it is appropriate
for them to be listed separately. During the 18th Century a great many London banks will
have issued their own banknotes. Very few of these have survived to the present day.
Surviving examples of banknotes from London banks, apart from the Bank of England,
are currently known from the following six banks listed in date order:

Child & Co (est. 1665),

Goslings & Sharpe (est.1683),

Backwell & Co (est. 1756),

Lemon & Co (est. 1772)

Strange & Co (est. 1793).

Ady Maceforces & Co (est 1801).
It is to be expected that further issues of the London Banks will be reported.
Unless specifically indicated otherwise it is assumed that London private banks ceased
issue of their own banknotes by the 1770s.
The National Provincial Bank of England (est. 1833) represents a special case whereby
banknotes were issued but only for use in branches outside London. When a London
branch was established in 1866 the issue of banknotes ceased.
The Bank of London (est. 1855) is a singular example of proof banknotes being prepared
by a London joint stock bank, even though no actual banknote issue was ever made. It
is possible that further examples of proof notes from London joint stock banks may be
confirmed in the future.
The following list is in date order. If date of establishment is not known then please refer
to the Index which lists all partnerships names and bank titles along with reference to the
appropriate Catalogue Number.

Section 4Skit Notes


Skit Notes are those items which copy or mimic the style of a banknote but which never
had any legal status as money. They were often produced for humorous or entertainment
reasons and sometimes with satirical or political overtones. Others were clearly for the
purpose of commercial advertisement. Due to their similarity to banknotes these Skit
Notes had potential to be used with intent to deceive. Whilst these issues are not money,
they are documents of social interest. Only Skit Notes produced before 1900 are listed.
Some of the locations listed below are spurious. On those occasions where the text of
a skit note does not make sense it should be remembered that that was sometimes their
intention.
