Description
Nos. 110, 111, and 112 High Street West is a bank building, now used as offices, constructed in 1876 by architect John Gibson for the National Provincial Bank. It is built from sandstone ashlar with a granite plinth and features a Welsh slate roof. The building has three storeys and a façade with six windows across and five down, designed in a Palazzo style.
The masonry is rusticated, except for the decorative orders. The ground floor includes round-headed openings, with steps leading up to a four-panel door with an overlight set in a keyed corniced architrave located in the left set-back bay. The right end bay features a double six-panel door beneath a shell-carved head with a jewelled key in the architrave. The ground floor windows also have similar decorative heads.
Above, the ground floor entablature supports a giant order, which includes square end pilasters with fluted necking and elaborately carved Ionic attached columns. These frame the first-floor keyed sash windows and the moulded aprons of the second-floor round-headed windows, which are set in enriched hollow reveals. Long jewelled brackets on the entablature support a top dentilled cornice. The low-pitched hipped roof is adorned with corniced chimneys at the rear and side.
