Cocktail bar opens in former Morecambe bank

The Old Bank has opened in the former HSBC in Morecambe

A new cocktail bar has officially opened in a former bank in Morecambe.

The Old Bank has opened in the former HSBC/Midland bank building on Marine Road Central.

The bar, serving beer, cocktails and offering live music, was originally going to be called The Vault Bar.

The building was most recently home to Grandma's Puppet Shop, which has moved onto Pedder Street.

Work has been taking place to renovate the inside of the premises for several months.

HSBC Bank closed in October 2015 after the building was home to a bank for 127 years, the Midland having opened in the premises in 1888.
