Museum on the Mound in the historic Bank of Scotland Head Office holds the highlights of the collection from the Lloyds Banking Group Archive. 

Amongst the items on display are Bank of Scotland’s original foundation documents from 1695, early examples of Scottish coinage, and items from the collection of Scottish Widows such as Sir Walter Scott’s life assurance policy. 

You are invited for an exclusive, Fellows-only tour led by Museum Curator Doug MacBeath FSAScot, and a chance to handle objects from the collection with Museum Engagement Officer Gillian Paterson, FSAScot. 

Numbers are strictly limited, and early booking is advised.
