Career Besley was taken into partnership by William Thorowgood at the Fann Street Foundry in Fann Street, City of London in 1838, having been employed as a traveller there since 1826. He worked with Thorowgood until the latter's retirement in 1849. Thorowgood had been the first to use the term "Grotesque" to describe a Sans-Serif typeface and the first to design one in lower case with ''Seven Line Grotesque''.

Besley retired from the type-founding business in 1861Anthony Camp, ''On the city's edge: a history of Fann Street, London'' (2016) 24-31. and went on to ...
