 Jersey’s two
sub branches, at Gorey and ST
BRELADE
are really good examples of the
modern look that Martins achieves in the 1960s – they both look as if you
could still just walk into them today - bright, clean lines and minimal
architectural fuss.Neither of them is “blessed” with a visit from Martins
Bank Magazine, although images of both are featured in a 1966 issue. Apart
from the exterior photographs we hold for both Gorey and St Brelade, the main
focus of the Bank’s interest seems only to have been on the main Jersey
Branch at St Helier, and St Peter Port Branch on Guernsey.

Gorey opens in 1964, and lasts as a Branch
of Barclays until 1993. Today the words “Bank House” can still be seen on the
front of this building, but the first business in the row is no longer a
bank, but an estate agency…
