More about this scene
Banks abound in Granby Street: the Italianate National Westminster of 1869, the Midland, a Gothic creation with its French pavilion roof, and the Yorkshire Penny Bank opposite the Grand Hotel is probably the most striking of all. Also in Granby Street is the sparkling turn-of-the-century Turkish Cafe offering a breath of the orient.
