The Kurow Branch Of The National Bank Of New Zealand, Limited
The Kurow Branch Of The National Bank Of New Zealand, Limited , was opened in 1893, in a small office in Mr. Thiele's store, and was afterwards conducted in the stone building adjoining the hotel. The handsome building now occupied was completed in 1903, and is situated in the main street. It is a one storey building of Oamaru stone, and contains a banking chamber, manager's room, and strong room, with residence attached. There is an eighth of an acre of land, and there are convenient stables behind the bank. An agency of the Kurow branch is conducted at Duntroon, where weekly visits are paid.
