russell house - natwest - sage house

18th July 2025
Russell House housed the NatWest Bank building and had stayed virtually unchanged for many, many years - hence the two photographs of it here. In 1931 it was a baker's shop run by one Henry Moore, and then Musson's. It stands in the High Street, across the road from the Plough. The bank announced its closure in June 2018. The premises were up for auction and were gutted in October 2018. The premises are currently a private house renamed Sage House.
