The Bank of England first issued a £50 note in approximately 1725. The note was last issued in 1943 and ceased to be legal tender in 1945.

The Bank of England issued a decimal £50 note in 1981 with Queen Elizabeth II on the front and Sir Christopher Wren on the reverse. The note was last issued in 1994 and ceased to be legal tender in 1996.

The Bank of England issued a new decimal £50 note in 1994 with Queen Elizabeth II on the front and Sir John Houblon on the reverse. This note is currently in circulation but will be withdrawn in due course after a publicity campaign by the Bank of England.

The Bank of England issued a new decimal £50 note in 2011 with Queen Elizabeth II on the front and Matthew Boulton and James Watt on the reverse.
