Description
No. 365 Lord Street is a bank building, now a shop, constructed in 1898 and altered later. Designed by Robert Todd, it features polished red granite at the ground floor and red sandstone ashlar above, with a roof that is concealed but likely made of slate. The building is in a classical style and has a narrow rectangular plan that runs at right angles to the street.
The exterior consists of three unequal storeys with a three-window range. The taller ground floor has a colonnade of engaged Tuscan columns on pedestals, topped with an entablature that includes triglyphs and modillions. Each interval of the entablature now contains a perspex panel with one letter of the name "Happit." A panelled parapet displays the words "THE OLD BANK" in attached gilded lettering. The first bay features a plain square-headed doorway with a cylindrical porch and sliding curved bronze doors, topped by a round-headed overlight. The other two bays have tall round-headed windows with lowered sills, all featuring margin panes, radiating glazing bars, and rusticated run-out voussoirs. The upper floors have sashed windows with margin panes, all framed by moulded architraves. The central window on the first floor has a pediment supported by consoles. The building is topped with a modillioned cornice and a plain parapet.
Inside, the building has been altered with the addition of a mezzanine floor, but it still retains a frieze with triglyphs and guttae, along with a coffered ceiling that features moulded plaster guilloche enrichment.
This building forms a group with Nos 355 and 357 to the left and No. 367 to the right.
