38 and 39, Saddler Street

Nos. 38 and 39 on Saddler Street is a house that was used as a bank at the time of listing. It dates from around 1700 and features 20th-century alterations. The building is constructed of English garden wall bond brick, primarily in an eight and one pattern, with ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof. It stands three storeys tall and has three bays.

The left side has a six-panelled door set in a lugged architrave, which is topped by a deeply-pulvinated frieze and a dentilled pediment. The bank occupies the right side. The upper floors are fitted with late 19th-century sash windows, except for the window on the right of the top floor, which has broad glazing bars. These windows are adorned with soldier course lintels and projecting stone sills. A three-brick string course runs along the ground floor, with the central brick being round-moulded. At the base of the parapet, there is a four-brick band topped with coved stone coping.

Inside, the dog-leg stair features an open string and continuous carved tread ends, with a steeply-ramped grip handrail supported by two column balusters per tread and a ramped dado. The entrance hall includes a boarded dado with a rail.
