The Lancashire and Yorkshire Bank opens a Branch in Bolton’s Bradshawgate by 1922, which
stays open for about ten years. For the last four of these, it is listed as
the main branch of Martins in Bolton. The
exact opening date is not known, but it closes, with business transferred to
12 Deansgate, on 9 April 1932. |

The Bank of Liverpool
and Martins Branch at 12 Deansgate, built and opened in 1925 wins out
probably for having the space to cope with the expanding business of the
Bank. Unfortunately 25 Bradshawgate branch is not one of those chosen to be
featured with an accompanying lithograph print in the Lancashire and
Yorkshire Bank’s fiftieth anniversary book published in 1922. However, that book, along with Martins
Bank’s 1930 Annual Report and Accounts and Kelly’s Directory have provided
the details shown in our Branch Information section below. Incidentally, in
1922, when the Bank of Liverpool and Martins is still a rival of the
Lancashire and Yorkshire Bank, it opens a temporary branch at No 39
Bradshawgate, pending the erection of permanent premises at 12 Deansgate.
