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.

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
2

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.

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:
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

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.

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:

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
Different Types
Provincial banknotes can be found in the following principal types:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
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.
16
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,
