3. Type the the name of the BS or Bank into the box & hit return.
4. Out pops the answer.

If it's an old building society that's long gone, just search on Google - usually the first entry will be for Wikipedia or a similar site that will tell you where it went. 

e.g. National & Provincial (remember them?)

A couple of issues with that - it lists linked banks whereas OP sought data about building societies, and it's nearly five years old!

The most recent one I can find for building societies is dated February 2024:
