  • This Branch Is Closing – but We're Still Here to Help
    This branch is closing – but we're still here to help Our Hatton Garden branch is closing on Friday 18 October 2019 Reasons for closure, and alternative ways to bank This branch is closing – but your bank is always open This first booklet will help you understand why we’ve made the decision to close this branch. It also sets out the banking services and support that will be available to you after this branch has closed. In a second booklet, which will be available from the branch prior to it closing or online at home.barclays/ukbranchclosures, we'll share concerns and feedback from the local community. We'll also detail how we are helping people transition from using the branch with alternative ways to carry out their banking requirements. Here are the main reasons why the Hatton Garden branch is closing: • The number of transactions has gone down in the previous 24 months, and additionally 88% of our branch customers also use other ways to do their banking such as online and by telephone. • Customers using other ways to do their banking has increased by 21% since 2012. • In the past 12 months, 30% of this branch's customers have been using neighbouring branches. • We've identified that only 39 customers use this branch exclusively for their banking Proposals to close any branch are made by the Barclays local leadership teams and verified at a national level ahead of any closure announcement. If you have any questions and concerns about these changes then please feel free to get in touch with Matthew Bell, your Market Director for Central London.

  • The Impact of Quadrupeds in Hanoverian London.Pdf
    THE IMPACT OF QUADRUPEDS IN HANOVERIAN LONDON THOMAS ALMEROTH-WILLIAMS MA BY RESEARCH THE UNIVERSITY OF YORK HISTORY SEPTEMBER 2010 2 ABSTRACT In his classic study, Man and the Natural World, Keith Thomas assumed and asserted that by 1800 the inhabitants of English cities, and particularly London, had become largely alienated from animal life.1 This study challenges this assumption by exploring the scale and impact of quadruped mammalian life in London during the period, 1714–1837. My research represents a deliberate shift in historical enquiry away from debates centred on the rise of kindness and humanitarianism, and towards the integration of animals into wider urban historiographies and a demonstration of how their presence shaped urban existence. My central aim is to highlight the power of animals to make profound and far-reaching changes in society, and specifically in the British metropolis. Much recent historiography has given particular attention to human cruelty to animals. Yet, the tendency to consider human-animal histories solely as narratives of abuse threatens not just to over-simplify complex phenomena but also to seriously underestimate the role of animals in society. I seek to redress this imbalance by re-asserting the significance of animal technologies and by placing animals at the centre of eighteenth-century urban, social and cultural histories. I begin by considering the scale and contribution of cattle and horses to the social and commercial life of the metropolis as well as their impact on the construction and use of the built environment. I then turn to the disruptive influence of animals and the challenge of ‘commanding’ the recalcitrant beast, by examining the problem of the ‘over-drove’ ox and of equine traffic accidents.
