Shoppers in Mapperley are glad to hear of plans to transform a former bank. New plans have been put forward to divide the building, which used to house a Barclays Bank in Plains Road, Mapperley Top, into two new units.
The application was submitted to Gedling Borough Council on behalf of Matthew Smith, of Courtenay Investments Ltd. Further details about the units remain unclear - but the plans do involve adding a new delivery door to the back of the building.
The bank closed in July 2021, with Barclays citing that the number of transactions at the counter had gone down and more customers were using different methods to bank.
