The ECHO has taken a look inside an iconic Liverpool city centre building which is currently undergoing a transformation into office space and an opulent restaurant.
The Grade II* listed building was constructed as the head office of the now defunct Martins Bank and was occupied by Barclays until the branch closed in 2009.
Seven storeys high, and designed in a classical style, the structure has been empty for more than a decade after plans announced in 2017 to transform it into Liverpool's first five star hotel failed to get off the ground.
