Description
The York and County Banking Co. commissioned architects Messrs Clark and Moscrop to design a building to replace an existing building on the corner of Denmark Street and York Street. At the time the York and County Bank shared premises with the London City and Midland Bank in King Street.
The Council approved the plans in 1903.
The Midland Bank traded from these premises since 1926 – now part of HSBC. LOCAL LIST
