The term "new" was only applied to the coins of the British decimal currency from 1968 to 1981 to distinguish between coins of the old currency and coins of the new currency (1 New Penny, 2 New Pence, 5 New Pence, etc).

There was no change to the One Pound note at decimalisation and they continued to be called "One Pound" notes.

The last Bank of England One Pound note was issued in 1984 and they ceased to be legal tender in 1988.

What was the original plan behind the Fifty Pound note?

The modern Fifty Pound note was introduced into the currency in 1981 to keep pace with the times and inflation. The introduction of a higher value banknote, such as the Fifty Pound note, relieves the pressure on the smaller banknotes such as the Ten and Twenty Pound notes. This means that the Ten and Twenty Pound notes will last longer in circulation and become relatively cheaper to produce and maintain in circulation due to a reduced demand for them.
