Description
The Yorkshire Bank, located at Peel Square and including number 19 Market Hill, is a bank and shop premises built in 1857 by Tasker. The building is constructed of ashlar with a Welsh slate roof and features three storeys and attics. It has two bays facing Peel Square, a round corner bay, and four bays on Market Hill, along with an additional single bay and a rounded corner bay that belong to number 19. The design is in the Italianate style, characterized by a rusticated ground floor and rusticated quoins at the ends and corner bays on the first and second floors.
The entrance, located in the corner bay, has a square head with an architrave, a swagged frieze, and a cornice. The ground-floor windows are segmental-headed, featuring voussoirs, dropped keystones, and aprons. Number 19 has a 20th-century shop frontage. The first-floor cornice is modillioned, and the round-arched first-floor windows have architraves with pilasters, decorative motifs in the spandrels, friezes, and cornices. The second-floor windows are segmental-headed with a sill band, eared architraves, and dropped keystones, similar to the paired lights in the fifth bay of number 19. The building is topped with a heavily modillioned eaves cornice and an ashlar parapet. Atop the corner bay is a notable lead lantern with swept sides and elliptical lights, along with later 20th-century dormer windows and a hipped roof.
Originally, the premises were built as the Coach and Horses Public House and were converted into a bank in 1912.
