Laneshawbridge lies about
two and a half miles east of Colne. The Bank of Liverpool opens a sub branch
there in 1911, adding to the portfolio of branches of the Craven Bank, that
it aquired in 1906. Opening hours are just one hour each week, and it is
surprising that the branch survives for twenty years before being closed down
for good in 1931. |

Throughout its life, Laneshawbridge
is under the control of Colne Branch.
A number of the smallest sub-Branches are closed in the early 1930s,
not only to consolidate and to remove over-representation, but also probably
to help with the expense of building martins Bank’s lavish new HEAD OFFICE Premises in Liverpool AND its principal LONDON
OFFICE, 68 Lombard
Street.
