Martins Bank, Lombard Street, City and County of the City of London, Greater London Authority, 1950-1953. Looking east along Great George Street towards Big Ben and Parliament Square, with pedestrians on the pavement in the foreground. The sign of the grasshopper was the crest of the Gresham family, and was used to distinguish the house of Thomas Gresham in Lombard Street in the 16th century. Gresham was a financier to Edward VI, Mary I and Elizabeth I, and founder of the Royal Exchange. The sign bears Gresham's initials and the date 1563; it is believed he traded at the site from this date.
