Clinton Cards and HSBC

This was once the site of the house where Thomas Harrison was born. Harrison became a Major-General and was second in command to Oliver Cromwell of the Parliamentarian forces during the Civil War. He was later tried for regicide and hung, drawn and quartered at Charing Cross in October 1660. There seems to be some discrepancy as to the date of his birth- a brass plate affixed to the wall of the bank states 1616, while published biographies claim he was born in 1606.
