Context
Administrative/Biographical history:
Roger Cunliffe, a Manchester manufacturer and merchant, opened a London branch in 1815 and traded from 1821 as a discount banker under the style "Roger Cunliffe, Son and Company" at No 33 (later No 24) Bucklersbury. In 1827 the firm became Cunliffes, Brooks, Cunliffe and Company, although after a split in 1836 this firm was to form two distinct parts-Roger Cunliffe, Sons and Company (who continued trading at 24 Bucklersbury) and Cunliffes, Brooks, Cunliffe and Company, who moved to 29 Lombard Street.
Roger Cunliffe, Sons and Company traded at 24 Bucklersbury until 1866, 6 Princes Street (1867-1890), 22 Finch Lane (1891-1906) and 28 Clements Lane (1907-41). In 1941 the firm was absorbed by Cater and Company, discount bankers of 5 Bishopsgate Street London.
