Mangles acquired the Poyle Park estate near
In 1864 the West Surrey private bank, C. E. Mangles & Co., dating back to 1836, was converted into the public South Eastern Banking Company; Mangles joined the new board. It expanded and changed name, taking over a Ramsgate bank, and being known as the Counties Joint Stock Bank and English Joint-Stock Bank. It did not survive the Panic of 1866, however. Charles Bradlaugh brought an action against the English Joint-Stock Bank, for unpaid commission.[13][14][15]
