The Bank of Liverpool was a financial institution founded in 1831 in Liverpool, England.

In 1918, it acquired Martins Bank,[1] and the name of the merged bank became the Bank of Liverpool and Martins Ltd. The name was shortened to Martins Bank Ltd in 1928.[2]

The successor bank was bought by Barclays Bank Ltd in 1969, when all of its 700 branches became branches of Barclays.
