We don’t have much information about Darwen Bolton Road Branch.  Our friends at Barclays tell us that an opening date is not recorded on the Martins Bank Index Card for the branch. Our own records for the Lancashire and Yorkshire date from 1922.  At that time Darwen Bolton Road does not appear in their branch listings.

In Service: 1924 until 1939

It is not mentioned either in Kelly’s Directory of Lancashire in 1924. We therefore believe it must have been opened some time between 1924 and 1928.  It is too small an outlet to have a telephone, and is not therefore to be found in the phone books of the time.  We have no image of the branch either, so if you can help, with information or images of this or any of Martins Bank’s 1000+ Branches, please do get in touch with us at the usual address martinsbankarchive@btinternet.com.
