Scope and Content Bank of Scotland, No 141 Princes Street, Edinburgh Princes Street was originally the south-facing terrace of James Craig's New Town. From the 1830s, reconstruction continued to transform the street into Edinburgh's principal thoroughfare of hotels, department stores, shops, offices and clubs. The Bank of Scotland, formerly the British Linen Bank, has a Classical front, designed in 1926 by Harold Ogle Tarbolton in granite with black columns. The British Linen Bank, founded in 1906, became part of the Bank of Scotland as the result of a merger in 1971. The name has recently been revived for the Bank of Scotland's merchant banking division. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
