The Bank Bazaar Story
The Bank Bazaar building was built in around 1880. It was designed by architects, the Mansfield brothers, as a Commercial Banking Company branch. The style is Victorian Italianate and as with all the banks of this era it was built with an solid and imposing brick stucco front facade. From the back garden however the rear of the bank emerges as a gracious Victorian two storey house and stables and that’s because it was home to the bank manager and his family. In fact the bank was residence to many bank families up until the 1980’s.
