Description
11 Narrowgate is a Grade II listed building, constructed in 1835 in a playful Gothick style by William Smith. Originally built as a Savings Bank, it occupies a sharply pointed corner site and features three storeys with an attic. The façade has two windows on each side and one on the gable end, all made of ashlar stone.
The corner of the building is accentuated by octagonal piers that rise to pinnacles with clustered capitals. There are cill strings on the first and second floors, and the windows are glazing bar sash types with cusped glazing in the margins, featuring both depressed and round ogee heads. The corner windows are heavily framed and hooded with crocketted labels, while the attic window is gabled and adorned with pinnacles. Below the first-floor windows, there are tracery panels, and the second-floor corner window displays the words "Savings Bank" in raised letters. The side elevations have windows with depressed arch heads and a blind cusped tracery parapet. The windows also feature moulded reveals with Tudor bases.
