Description

No. 62 Southgate is a mid to late 19th-century building that originally served as a bank and is now a house and warehouse. It features painted brick with sandstone dressings and a Welsh slate roof. The structure has three storeys and a basement, organized into three bays.

The left-hand bay includes panelled double doors set within a round-headed architrave, topped by a plain frieze and cornice. The ground floor has round-headed windows with similar surrounds and sills supported by carved consoles, which are above panelled aprons and a continuous moulded plinth. There is a ground-floor entablature as well.

On the first floor, the segmental-headed windows have stilted-arched architraves resting on Tuscan pilasters, with matching friezes and cornices above. The second-floor segmental-headed windows feature eared and shouldered architraves, keystones, and a sill string. The building is capped with a bracketed top entablature and an overhanging cornice. Most windows contain early to mid-20th-century casements, with the second-floor windows showcasing geometric-pattern ornamental ferramenta.

The roof is hipped and gabled, with two corniced and banded stacks. The left return has two bays, featuring round-headed ground-floor windows with sills and keys, and blocked segmental-headed upper-floor windows with sill bands. Chamfered quoins mark the corners of the building.

At the rear, a contemporary four-bay wing has segmental-headed sash windows with glazing bars and upper-floor sill bands. The second bay from the left has a Gibbs surround for a doorway accessed by four stone steps. Additionally, there is an early 20th-century single-storey rear extension, known as No. 31 Town Wall, which includes a canted bay window, a moulded eaves cornice, and a parapet that supports a balustrade of horizontal rails enclosing a flat sun-deck roof. A tall brick stack is located on the west side of the roof.
