Our
friends at Barclays Group Archives have traced mention of Bradford Clayton
Branch in the prospectus - issued 1926 - of the Halifax Equitable Bank, which
merged with the Bank of Liverpool and Martins in 1919. Clayton first appears in the Annual Report
and Accounts of the Bank of Liverpool and Martins in 1926 where it is listed
as a sub branch to Bradford’s Sunbridge Road Branch. The above
lease is taken out on 1 Sep 1925, between the owner, Mr John F Elliott and
the Halifax Equitable Benefit Building Society. The address is given as “Central Place,
Clayton Lane, Clayton in the Parish of Bradford in the County of York”. |
In Service: November 1926 until 7 March 1932 |

little branch is closed well before the advent of Martins Bank Magazine, it
is unlikely that we shall be able to find the names of anyone who worked
there. |
