Hipperholme is opened in
1898 by the Halifax Commercial, a bank that merges with the Bank of Liverpool and Martins Limited in 1920. Whilst Martins Bank
Magazine does not visit the branch, we have two short articles below, concerning
the examination success of Graham White, and the retirement of Mr Broadley,
who unfortunately has to relinquish his role as Clerk in Charge due to long
term health problems. As well as this
lovely exterior shot, we also have further images from the Barclays
Collection that show the interior of the branch, after its 1960s
modernisation. Sadly this means that dear old Hipperholme has had to move
with the times and install bandit screens… |
