A FORMER NatWest branch is to go under the hammer this June.

The 3,000 sq ft, two-storey bank property is being auctioned with a guide price of £60,000.
Paul Thompson, managing director of auction house Pugh, said: “The property is on a busy shopping street and has good potential for redevelopment, subject to the buyer obtaining planning consent.
He added: “Now that the majority of banking transactions are carried out online or on mobile, NatWest, along with our other retail bank clients, is reassessing its high street property assets. As a result a host of unique and interesting properties are coming on to the market with lots of potential for new and imaginative uses.”
