Surely you get the annual leave bank holiday back aswell?
Either way keep a definite note of bank holidays owed to you cos your DOM wont exactly go out of his way to remind you.

Your bank holidays you were already off will be credited back to you on next years A/L.

Just keep a note of the dates but first ask your DOM what your leave entitlement is then you will no whether they are having one over you and if they have or have not been credited back to you.

Should they not be credited back on the current years annual leave?

Well it's my day off every Monday. What I usually do is just save my BH days and ask for a weekend off that suits me better, or have a couple of days extra on my holiday.
Your holiday entitlement starts from four and a half week's paid holiday each year, on top of the eight Bank Holidays.
Taken from RM's website. So as long as you get your 8 Bank Holidays a year, then it's all good

Its credited back on THIS years annual leave.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet

Just keep on walking down never ending streets
