(Above and Left) Two
images of Charles Albert Hebden, from the Ripon Line (E25/30).
Born in Ripon in 1877, he was the son of Brian Hebden and Mary
Ann Moss. His father owned a Varnish Manufacturing company and
Charles followed his father in the family business. He died in
1960 at the age of 83. I don't know what became of the Varnish
firm - does anybody out there know? (Pictures courtesy of
Frank Hebden, Sydney, Australia). |

(Left) A plaque inside Barclays
Bank, St Nicholas Street Scarborough, which commemorates the
amalgamation of Woodall, Hebden and Company with Barclays in
1896. Woodall and Hebden's Bank financed the building of
Scarborough
North Bay pier in 1866 at an initial cost of £12,135. The
original location of the "Old Bank" was in Queen Street, and
started life as Bell, Woodall and Company.
(Below) A promissory note
issued by Woodall Hebden & Co to James Fisher on December 30th
1879. In effect a bank cheque, it bears the signature of Charles
W. Woodall, and promises to pay the bearer on demand the sum of
£5. The number "205 has been added by hand after "No.77" as has
the date. "Payed" has been scribbled across the note after it
was cashed.
