Whilst the 1960s sees a
rapid expansion of the branch network in the South of England, Martins Bank
is at the same time busy consolidating its position in the North by adding
new branches wherever it seems that business will be attracted to the Bank’s
services. That’s the plan, anyway,
and in 1966 a new office of the Bank is opened at Knottingley,
as a self-accounting sub-Branch to
Pontefract. When Barclays and Martins merge at the end
of 1969, Knottingley is downdraded to the status of sub-Branch, but it does
continue to serve the public until 1983… |
