Martins Bank 1928+

Sep 1.jpg

In 1962, the latest town to join Martins Bank’s network of Cattle Market and Auction Mart branches is Ulverston, a Lancashire town whose banking history dates back to the mid 1700s, and the services of Messrs Petty and Postlethwaite. 

Looking more like one of a neat row of semi-detached prefabricated dwellings than a bank, this sub-Branch has a fine utility front door with the number 18 marked out in screw-on letters. Oh the luxury and expense… … and with a public telephone available NEXT DOOR, (“…hold the line caller, and press Button A”), these are indeed such modern times!

In Service: 1962 until 31 July 1992
