I worked for Midland Bank HSBC for 32 years and spent all but the last two in Birmingham Branches. I am photographing all the branches, or what's left of them, as they were when I joined Midland Bank in 1963. The branches all start with the sorting code 40-11. This is the site, at 852 Bristol Road South, of the Midland Bank, Northfield.Bennetts Hill Branch on the corner of Bennetts Hill and Waterloo Street. The branch, as HSBC, is now at 770-772 Bristol Road South, itself the former site of Boots the Chemist. The Longbridge sub-office was manned daily from Northfield. Both branches had the sorting code of 40-11-20.
