==History==
The present building was constructed in 1876 as a branch of the Midland Bank, to the design of Nantwich architect Thomas Bower.〔〔Hall, p. 250〕 It was on the site of an earlier Midland Bank building, which employed a manager and seven clerks in 1871.〔〔Lamberton & Gray, p. 53〕 Once part of the cemetery of the parish church, the site had previously housed a painter and a butcher's premises.〔 The bank was later extended and altered in the same style.〔〔Pevsner, p. 287〕 The Midland Bank is no longer listed in directories from 1892; Barclays Bank has occupied the building since 1939.〔''Kelly's Directory'' (1892; 1939)〕
