Photograph of staff who worked as Air Raid Precaution (ARP) wardens at the Threadneedle Street branch during the Second World War. They are dressed in ARP overcoats, with helmets and the haversacks in which they carried gas masks and first aid kits. Some of the individuals are wearing military decorations, possibly from action in the First World War. The image appears to have been taken on the roof of the building.
