No, but there might still be some gold in the cellar!
More than that!! My dad, who at some time during military service in the 1950s guarded the Bank of England for a while, (I guess this is pre Group 4 days), assures me that the Bank of England has a tank in its basement!!
(That is a tank with a big gun on the front to protect our gold reserves, as opposed to something to supply the hot water system...)
