Just quietly getting on
with the job…
It’s all a bit unusual
really – so many of Martins Bank’s Yorkshire branches have star billing,
visits and pictures in Martins Bank Magazine, and a full gallery of staff
images, but Rotherham doesn’t. This
branch seems to have slipped by into the past without a mention, having
quietly got on with the job for thirty years.
This leaves us a little short of material for Rotherham’s page in our
Archive. |
In Service:
6 October 1947 until 30 October 1977

If you can help with images
and/or information about this or any of Martins Bank’s 1000 Branch Buildings,
please do get in touch with us at the usual address martinsbankarchive@btinternet.com. Rotherham is part
of Martins Bank’s Leeds District and is opened in 1947 by Manager Mr C
Tindall.
This
photograph (left) shows how the interior of the branch looked at that time,
until the branch refurbishment programme of the mid-1960s. Typical of many refurbishments, Rotherham is brought
up to date in 1965 with a sleek wood fronted counter (still without the need
for security grilles) and a functional back office more suited to the
computer age that is about to turn branch banking on its head…
