Former National Australia Bank, Koroit

Before you ask, no, I haven't been to Australia yet (would love to!), but my South Pacific friend atkipete – Peter Lynch recent emailed me this photo from Down Under to post. A big THANK YOU, MATE, to Pete for his thoughtfulness and special effort.

 

Pete's interest is in trucks and lorries, which I also like, and that was how we met via flickr originally!

Former NAB (National Australia Bank) branch, 110 Commercial Road, Koroit, Victoria 3282, Australia.

 

This building dates from 1868 when it opened as the local NAB office, and the second storey was added in 1872. NAB shut this branch in 2002.

 

Sadly, according to multiple news media reports, Koroit has lost all its bank branches recently (in 2017), when the last remaining ANZ (Australia & New Zealand Banking Group) shut its branch in the town.
