TSB St. Helen's Square, Blake Street

Standing next to Swarovski on the corner of St. Helen's Square and Blake Street is the imposing facade of a branch of TSB. I remember this building as the Yorkshire Penny Bank and the Penny being droppped during inflationary times to become Yorkshire Bank before being taken over by Llooyds TSB.

Swarovski - St. Helen's Square

St. Helen's Square is surrounded by elegant buildings. Swarovski restaurant also bears the name Terry, the former York chocolate company who were previous owners of the building. A classic case of asset stripping in the name of "concentrating on core business!"
