Description
Lytham Heritage Centre, formerly known as the Trustees Savings Bank, is located at No. 2 Dicconson Terrace in Lytham St Annes. This building dates back to 1899, as indicated by the date on the gable above the corner entrance. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, featuring generous dressings of red sandstone. The building has a rectangular plan situated on a corner lot with a canted corner and is designed in the Tudor style.
It is primarily a single-storey structure, with a three-window facade facing Dicconson Street and a five-window facade on Henry Street. The canted corner features a Tudor-arched doorway with cavetto-panel jambs, adorned with Tudor-flower ornamentation and a shallow canopy that has elaborate carvings, including mouchette tracery. The doorway includes recessed double doors with ornamental strap hinges and ferramenta for the glazed panels, along with a panelled parapet and a shaped gable that contains a traceried stone plaque inscribed with "1899."
The Henry Street facade includes a single-light window, two cross-windows, another single-light window, and a Tudor-style doorway at the right-hand end, topped with a window and a shaped gable. The Dicconson Street facade has three large cross-windows and adjoins No. 4 Dicconson Street, which is of the same architectural style, creating an interesting and unusual example of this type of building.
