SU7423 : Petersfield means business (210)
taken 4 years ago, near to Petersfield, Hampshire, England
Recently I had this mad idea. To photograph everywhere in the town where either something was produced, something was being sold or someone was being served a drink or a meal. I thought it would be better to do it on the Sunday the clocks went back as the town would be empty, but as usual lots of people were up and about their business.
Barclays is a British multinational banking and financial services company with its headquarters in London. The bank traces its origins back to 1690 when John Freame and Thomas Gould started trading as goldsmith bankers in Lombard Street, London. The name "Barclays" became associated with the business in 1736, when James Barclay, son-in-law of John Freame, one of the founders, became a partner in the business.
