Martins Former Branches.jpg

Sep 1.jpg

These are the pages for those branches that were closed by Martins before the merger with Barclays in 1969.  Inevitably, there are very few images of these branches, and sometimes none at all of the staff who worked in them, so if you can help fill in any gaps, please get in touch at the usual address: gutinfo@btinternet.com . Branches closed after June 1968 will continue to be shown on the relevant district menus and the A to Z of branches. Former branches that until now have been available from the district menus, or the branches by county listing have been moved to this page.
