Description:
A typical Lower Saxton half-timbered farmhouse built about 1857 was restored and transformed into a branch of the bank. Extensions to the premises and restoration work was carried out using half-timbering from original buildings and maintaining as well as possible the previous character of the house. Some work, e.g., erection of strong room underneath building carried out purely in order that construction could function as a bank.
