Banking in Cark-In Cartmel
An undated photograph produced by the firm of Woolfall & Eccles (later T M Alexander & Son), architects of the Midland Bank, 119, Station Rd. Cark in Cartmel1 Banking in Cark-in Cartmel In today's high street the bank is becoming a rarity and 2017 will see the closure of another branching the Cartmel Peninsula; the National Westminster Bank in Main Street, Grange over Sands.2The banks are leaving the small market town high street but in the late nineteenth and for the first half of the twentieth century they were part of the local landscape in not only market towns, but even villages and hamlets such as Cark in Cartmel. Until 1826, banks were essentially private merchant banks but the Bank Act of 1826 permitted joint stock banks of issue with unlimited liability to be established. The Lancaster Banking Co. was one such bank which was set up in 1826 and existed until 1907 when it was taken over. For over seventy years, the hamlet of Cark in Cartmel, Cumbria had three banks ; the Lancaster Banking Co. which according to the Bulmer's Directory of 19113 was located at Bank House, Station Rd. and opened initially on Fridays ; the York City and County Banking Co. which became 1 HSBC archives April 18th 2017 2 The Westmorland Gazette, Thursday, March 31st. 2017 3 Bulmer's Directory of 1911. the London and Joint Stock Bank Ltd. was also located at 119 Station Rd. ; and the Bank of Liverpool and Martin's Ltd. which was located opposite at 114 Station Rd. All three banks were characterised by the fact that the banking premises occupied only one room of the building that they occupied and in addition were staffed by one member of staff , which in the case of the Midland and Martin's banks was the bank manager from either the Ulverston or Grange branch. -

Heritage Statement
Heritage Statement Overview The application is for the refurbishment and reconfiguration of the existing NatWest Bank located at 21 EastGate Street Standishsgate, Gloucester. NatWest’s first branch in Gloucester originally opened as a branch of National Provincal Bank of England in 1834. Gloucester at this time was a manufacturing centre with extensive dockyards, and was known for its pin-making industry. The city was also home to a growing number of iron foundries producing agricultural and milling implements for the surrounding area. The population of Gloucester had been increasing steadily throughout the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, and by 1831 the city had over 14,000 inhabitants. National Provincial Bank of England had been founded in London in September 1833. From the outset it intended to establish a nationwide network of branches, and Gloucester was to be its very first. The branch opened in King Street on 1 January 1834. It was an immediate success, and even though the traditional industries in the city began to decline in the middle part of the nineteenth century, the construction trades flourished. Following the coming of the railway to Gloucester in 1840, the city also became known for the manufacture of railway carriages. By 1843 increasing demand for banking services in Gloucester meant that the branch had outgrown its original King Street premises. A new purpose-built branch building was erected in Westgate Street, completed in 1844. The branch’s business continued to grow rapidly throughout the nineteenth century, and in 1890 it relocated again to more spacious newly-constructed premises at 21 Eastgate Street. -

Wealthy Business Families in Glasgow and Liverpool, 1870-1930 a DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO
NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY In Trade: Wealthy Business Families in Glasgow and Liverpool, 1870-1930 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Field of History By Emma Goldsmith EVANSTON, ILLINOIS December 2017 2 Abstract This dissertation provides an account of the richest people in Glasgow and Liverpool at the end of the nineteenth and beginning of the twentieth centuries. It focuses on those in shipping, trade, and shipbuilding, who had global interests and amassed large fortunes. It examines the transition away from family business as managers took over, family successions altered, office spaces changed, and new business trips took hold. At the same time, the family itself underwent a shift away from endogamy as young people, particularly women, rebelled against the old way of arranging marriages. This dissertation addresses questions about gentrification, suburbanization, and the decline of civic leadership. It challenges the notion that businessmen aspired to become aristocrats. It follows family businessmen through the First World War, which upset their notions of efficiency, businesslike behaviour, and free trade, to the painful interwar years. This group, once proud leaders of Liverpool and Glasgow, assimilated into the national upper-middle class. This dissertation is rooted in the family papers left behind by these families, and follows their experiences of these turbulent and eventful years. 3 Acknowledgements This work would not have been possible without the advising of Deborah Cohen. Her inexhaustible willingness to comment on my writing and improve my ideas has shaped every part of this dissertation, and I owe her many thanks. -
