Although the preserve of the
once mighty North Eastern Banking Company, this surely now has to be
“Martins’ Country” – the Bank has more than ten branches in this little
corner of North East Yorkshire alone. This means there is not
enough room on this map, specially produced for Martins Bank in 1968 by
Geographia Limited, for Carlin How. A sub-Branch to Loftus, Carlin How is
opened by the Bank of Liverpool and Martins in 1919. If it were on the map,
it would be sandwiched neatly between Brotton and Loftus. |

Carlin How opens for just two
hours each Wednesday, and it also manages to survive the merger with
Barclays, but only by a little more than four years, closing its doors for
the final time at the end of January 1974. This branch does however have the
honour of being the ONLY bank in town for all of its fifty-five-year
service. |
