I SEE that Barclay’s Bank are closing their Caerleon Road branch on 14 November. What a blow shot in the arm for busy traders as there is now no nearby bank in the area. Traders will have to risk taking their day’s takings to Commercial Street where there is no handy parking, Maindee with likewise parking or Cwmbran.
