Midland Bank

The Midland Bank, located at No. 32 Rodney Street and including No. 45 Leece Street, is a bank building from the late 18th century with a late 19th-century ground floor. It is constructed of brick with stone dressings and features a slate roof. The ground floor showcases a pilastrade with panelled Ionic pilasters and casement windows. The entrance, situated in the end bay, has a moulded arch with a keystone flanked by Ionic attached columns. There is strapwork decoration along the frieze. The upper windows are fitted with wedge lintels and sashes that include glazing bars. The top cornice rounds off the facade on Leece Street, which consists of three bays. The end two bays have a ground floor similar to the main one, with two-light mullioned windows that have Gibbs surrounds on the first floor. The first bay features an entrance with segmental pediments, a canted tripartite oriel above, and a top balustrade, with a chimney positioned to the left.
