The central text panel carries a cursive promise-to-pay legend payable at Douglas, with the denomination ONE POUND in bold letterpress below, and the issuing bank's name in a large arched banner across the top.

Descrizione del rovescio The reverse is printed in dark brown intaglio and dominated by a large central medallion encircled by the bank's name, within which the Manx triskelion appears on a fine guilloche ground. Flanking the central medallion are two oval scenic vignettes: at left, a harbour view of Peel Castle, and at right, an industrial scene with a large waterwheel and mill structure. Ornate acanthus scroll-work connects all three vignettes, and the printer's imprint appears at the foot of the design.

Lancashire & Yorkshire Bank was absorbed by Martins Bank in 1928, making this series among the last notes the institution ever issued — the 1925–1927 dates place production squarely in the final years before the takeover ended its independent existence. English provincial banknote issue was already a dying practice by this point, with the Bank of England's monopoly progressively tightening through the nineteenth century; Lancashire & Yorkshire survived as a note-issuing bank longer than most of its regional peers.

Waterlow & Sons had by the 1920s become one of the dominant security printers for British commercial banks, and their work for provincial issuers in this period is consistently well-executed at the intaglio stage.
