Former District Bank - Every Street This building sits on the
corner of Every Street and Merrill Street in East Manchester. It
has a small car park in back and appears to be in use as an office of
some description. The clue to its former function can be found
above the shuttered corner door. The stone carved coat of arms
bears the latin motto, "Decus Prudentia Merces" which translates as "A
Reward and Honour to Prudence". This is the coat of arms for the
District Bank which merge into the Natwest in 1970.
