Bank House

Bank House is a Neo-Greek villa built in 1833, notable for its very good proportions. The building has two storeys and features three windows. It is constructed from ashlar and has pilasters at the corners, with engaged columns flanking the central bay. These support an entablature that is slightly broken forward in the center and rebated at the angles. The returns are plain and consist of three bays. The sash windows have glazing bars and are set in plain reveals, except for the first-floor center and ground-floor sides, which feature architraves. There are cornices on long scrolled brackets over the ground floor openings. Access to the building is via four steps leading to an eight-panel door, which has a cornice head and an oblong fanlight, all within an architrave similar to that of the windows. A pediment is positioned above the door.
