For those of us who worked in Ashington Branch in Northumberland, it’s sad to see that the building has lain empty for many years after they closed the branch. It looks like they may now be clearing it ready for a new tenant, although the For Lease sign is still up. Such happy days for me as it was where I started my Midland Bank/ HSBC career in October 1984, firstly on a YTS, then on a full time contract before resigning last year ( although I did have a break 2011-2016) https://www.facebook.com/groups/295416768840386 NEWSLETTER 41
