-Editor
Bank of Ireland UK has announced its new polymer £20 banknote will go into circulation from 20 July.
The new £20 note retains the image of The Old Bushmills Distillery, County Antrim, the world's oldest licensed whiskey distillery.
The note incorporates enhanced security features, including a holographic stripe and a clear window. This can be seen from both the front and back of the note. The note will also include a shiny, iridescent area of ink which changes colour as you tilt it.
The £20 polymer note also incorporates a tactile feature with three arrangements of four dots in a square formation. This enables physical identification for the visually impaired.
