Description
Castle Moat House is a bank building constructed between 1838 and 1840, designed by E. Corbett for the North and South Wales Bank. The facade was later brought forward between pilasters. The building is made of stone and consists of three storeys. It has three bays facing Derby Square and five bays facing Fenwick Street. The design features Corinthian pilasters, a plain frieze, and a pediment with a dentilled cornice. On the ground floor, there is a doorway to the right and two round-arched windows. The first floor has three sash windows set in moulded architraves with aprons, keystones, and cornices, with the central window featuring a segmental pediment. The top floor has three smaller windows. The Fenwick Street front also has Corinthian pilasters and end doorways with a pulvinated frieze and pediment, although the right doorway is now blocked. The first-floor windows have battered architraves, and the entablature carries round.
