Bank, early C20 in a decorative style, possibly to designs by T B Whinney. The decorative building is of one and a half storeys and five bays formed with giant Corinthian order fluted columns set on projecting plinths. The columns support an entablature with a modillion cornice. Above is a tall parapet formed with alternating panelled and balustraded sections which largely conceals a high-pitched roof of graduated green slate. The upper, half-storey windows are set in architraves, with feet, ears, and wheat trails, the openings having modern glazing. The ground-floor windows are tall, round arched windows with glazing bars and margin lights, set within architraves with triple keystones that rise to the cills of the windows above. The bays at either end of the elevation have pedimented double doorways set within architraves with ears and feet, the doors being modern replacements.
