Visitors to the Archive have been contributing stories of their time with the Bank since the online archive launched in 2009. These anecdotes range from swapping the rulebook for “Spanish customs” at sub branches, to complete career histories.

Julian Taylor is a long standing friend of the archive, and has both visited our collection of Martins Bank Memorabilia, and contributed to it greatly, with items, advice and memories, and images of Keighley and some nearby Branches. Having cut his banking teeth here in the late 1950s/early 1960s, Julian has a great fondness for this particular part of Craven Country. Four of the stories he has told for us relate to the quirkiness and unpredictability of sub-Branch life.
