Land Securities began in 1944 when Harold Samuel bought the Board of Land Securities Investment Trust Limited. The following year the company had made a small profit and the share price was set at 44 pence. Competitive and rapid buying and investment in property and small acquisitions in the 1940s and 1950s helped to develop the company and encourage growth and investment. As the company grew, Harold Samuel was awarded a knighthood in 1963 and was elevated to peerage in 1972.

Land Securities has continued to grow, acquiring, developing, and managing more property, significantly winning the BBC and BT outsourcing projects in 2002. Recent famous developments and commercial projects, among others, include the Bullring in Birmingham, Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth and Princesshay in Exeter. The original share price in 1945 of 44 pence has since risen to over six pounds, showing a fantastic return to shareholders and a demand to invest in Land Securities Group PLC.
