Title
Bank of England in Threadneedle Street
Description
A view across Bank Junction towards the southern façade of the Bank Of England, City of London. This is a busy street scene with many horse-drawn vehicles (omnibuses, hackney carriages and carts), passengers, policemen and pedestrians. One cart belongs to the Midland Railway Company, while one of the omnibuses carries an advert for Nestles Milk on the side. The majority of the men are wearing either top or bowler hats. The view is dominated by the Threadneedle Street and Princes Street façades of the Bank of England. At this time it was a three-storey building designed by Sir John Soane between 1788 and 1833. It was almost entirely rebuilt by architect Herbert Baker between 1925 and 1939 becoming a seven-storey building and retaining the original windowless outer wall. It was Grade I listed in 1950; listing number 1079134.
