The History of Bishop's Move

Bishop & Sons’ Depositories was established in 1854 by Joseph James Bishop, who was a farm worker from Norfolk. Originally he came to London to join Robert Peel’s newly established police force but left this after a short time to open a green grocers in Elizabeth Street, London. It is from here that JJ developed the business to include general cartage. This soon evolved to moving and storing household furniture and effects, with a small yard in what was then the village of Pimlico, SW1.
