The Bank of England advises -
All Bank of England notes from which legal tender status has been withdrawn remain payable at face value forever at the Bank of England in London. Any such notes may be presented for payment either in person during business hours, or sent to us by post.
All Bank of England issue notes can be taken or sent under registered mail to the Bank of England to be changed up. Your own bank can also change up small amounts of old banknotes, but you need to have an account to pay them into.
You may find it more lucrative to sell them to a coin and banknote dealer though or on an auction website.
If you take them to the Bank of England they will give you face value for them. Make an appointment first as they will not exchange them on demand.
