Description

Spring Bank is a house that has been converted into a residential home for the elderly. It was built in the mid-19th century and features dressed squared sandstone with a slate roof that has two spans, hipped at the right-hand end. The building has a double-pile plan and consists of two storeys with four windows on the front. It includes a plinth, rusticated quoins on the right, a plain frieze, and a moulded gutter cornice.

On each floor, there are four unhorned sashed windows, all with raised sills and plain surrounds. The right-hand return wall has three windows and features a square single-storey porch in the centre. This porch has corner pilasters, a plain frieze, a moulded cornice, and a round-headed doorway with pilaster jambs, cavetto moulded imposts and head, a carved keystone, and a panelled door with a plain fanlight. There is also a window on the side of the porch in a similar style. The building has ridge chimneys and a stepped rear wall that includes a round-headed stair window with imposts and a keystone, which is sashed with glazing bars and coloured margin panes, along with a single-storey extension.

Inside, there is a lateral corridor and an elaborate yellow marble fireplace in the front room with a semicircular opening. The staircase features slender cast-iron balusters. Spring Bank forms a group with the adjacent buildings at No.73 and No.71.
