Martins Bank’s sub-Branch at Onchan, occupies a
prime corner position on the main street.
The history of the Bank’s branches on the Isle of Man is told on our ISLE OF MAN
page. During the ownership of the six
Manx Branches by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Bank, Onchan sub-Branch opens
on Tuesdays and Fridays.
By the time of the 1969 Merger of Martins and
Barclays, Onchan is open full banking hours across the six day banking week.
Currently we have no images of the staff who manned this sub-Branch, although
it would be reasonable to assume that some of the staff from DOUGLAS
will have served here. The Island staff definitely keep things in the family,
and down the years we have seen more than one generation of both the Kermode
and the Costain Families hard at work in the Isle of Man Branches…
