With all NatWest branding now removed the old lettering has been revealed. I’ll pop up and get a photo to post later as I guess it won’t be around for long. Cant remember now for sure but I think it’s National Provincial Bank of England! Old age grrrrrrrrr.
 
As promised. Will also try agent to see if I can get access to record the inside as it looks interestin.

Hope so. I took some through the windows but they were very dirty and bright sun meant nothing was worth posting. Insides been stripped back but still looks some interesting stuff.
 
Unfortunately I can’t gain access due to insurance reasons, which is fair enough. Sadly much is being removed as it’s becoming a hair and beauty salon! Not much use for a sixty plus bald bloke!
