Barclays Bank Up For Sale

The year was 1977

How many of you remember the bungalow in New Road that was for one or two days (I cannot remember) a week opened up as Barclays Bank?

I used to do my banking there when I first moved to Canvey. In fact that might well be my daughters pushchair parked up outside.

Does anyone know when it first opened as a bank? Did you work there? Or do you remember it when someone lived there and who they were?

Please comment below if you have any memories of the place.
