Near Epping, what is "Bank of England?"


A new contract has confirmed sterling banknotes will carry on being
printed
in Epping Forest for the next 10 years.

De La Rue, the world’s largest commercial banknote printer, today
announced
that the contract will see the notes printed at the Bank of England
facility in Langston Road, Debden, until 2025.

On September 8, the Bank announced that De La Rue, who have printed the
banknotes in Debden since 2003, had been identified as the ‘preferred
bidder’ for the banknote printing contract, which was finalised today.

Very interesting. Does De La Rue have a section open to the public?

What else are they printing, by the way?


I think they made the tiles for Mother Kelly's doorstep.
