Looking for a new hobby? Staff at the Bank of England have formed all sorts of societies related to their hobbies. One of the oldest is the Bank of England Operatic, Dramatic and Orchestral Society 🎭 #EYAHobbies #BoEArchive
Sketches & drawings in the Archive are quite rare which is why these examples from the 1868 scrapbook of an employee named Percy Sheppard caught our eye. ✍ #EYAArt #BoEArchive
The Archive contains unique material such as a set of “autographs of notable people”. This page is for the explorer Sir John Franklin who lost his life in 1847 trying to find a Northwest passage for ships between the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans. 🌎 #EYAUnique #BoEArchive

Did you know that Bank once had its own military guard? The Bank Picquet began in 1780 for protection during the Gordon Riots. This page is from a book of the Bank Piquet's expenses in 1827 and includes items such as cheese & biscuits! #EYATradition #BoEArchive

Is there someone you could #JustCall to ask about theirs? #HBAHTeamSpirit #BoEArchive
Whilst locking up on Christmas Eve in 1805, the Chief Accountant of the Bank found a candle still burning in the Library!
He snuffed it out and made sure to question the staff that had neglected it. What a narrow escape… 🔥
