History
The main business of this firm of stockbrokers was on behalf of small individual, rather than large insitutional clients, and much of it was transacted through the clients' banks. The firm dealt in all types of securities with no particular area of specialisation. It ceased business in October 1974.
The firm was based at 15 Angel Court 1855-1857, 73 Old Broad Street 1857-1887, 6 Finch Lane 1887-1910, 76 Cornhill 1910-1923, 25 Birchin Lane 1923-1936, 21 Birchin Lane 1936-1957, 27/32 Old Jewry 1957-70 and 99 Aldwych 1970-1975.
In 1941 the offices of G.B. Tydd and Company and Montagu Nicholas and Company were bombed and both firms were housed with G.S. Herbert until the end of the war. During 1946 they were amalgamated with G.S. Herbert and Sons, and some of their records have survived with the latter's.
