British Linen Bank
|
Founded as the British Linen Company Bank. 'British' was used rather than 'Scottish' to avoid any association with the 1745 uprising. Its purpose was to support the linen industry but it became a general joint-stock bank. Dropped 'Company' from name in 1905. Taken over by the Bank of Scotland in 1970 but the name survived as the merchant bank wing of Bank of Scotland.

Bo'ness Town Council. Town Clerk
|
The office of Town Clerk in Bo'ness pre-dates the establishment of Bo'ness Town Council. The Harbour & Town Trustees and the Police & Burgh Commissioners employed local solicitors as clerks and the office of Town Clerk evolved out of these appointments. The Town Clerk kept the minutes, correspondence and other administrative records of the local authorities and acted as their legal adviser. The post ceased to exist with the abolition of Bo'ness Town Council in 1975 and the functions were mainly transferred to the Chief Executive or to the Director of Law & Administration of Falkirk District Council.
