National Westminster Bank

The National Westminster Bank in Glossop is a bank building constructed in 1897, with additions made in 1910. It features ashlar stone with ashlar dressings on the main elevations, while coursed millstone grit is used on the other sides. The roof is made of Westmorland slate and has terracotta ridge tiles. The architectural style is Elizabethan Revival, and the building has an L-shaped plan with the entrance located to the left of the main range and the banking hall to the right.

The exterior stands two to three storeys tall, with a single storey at the rear. It has a chamfered plinth, a frieze with panels on the first floor, and a band on the second floor. The front facing High Street has three windows arranged in a 1:2 pattern, all featuring mullions and transoms. To the left, there is a three-storey entrance bay topped with a shaped gable that has a lion finial and a datestone. The doorway to the left has double panel doors, and there is a two-light window to the right, both set under round-headed arches with mullion fanlights. Above this is a canted four-light oriel window on a corbelled base, and above that, a five-light window with a hoodmould. The banking hall to the left has two segment-headed four-light windows with hoodmoulds and carved stops, above which are two three-light windows, with a shaft between topped by a rampant lion and shield on a crenellated parapet.

The left return features an irregular three-window front with a crenellated parapet. To the right, there is a segment-headed four-light window with a hoodmould and carved stops, flanked by two-light windows. To the left, there is a round-headed two-light window with a carved transom and mullion fanlight. Above this are a single two-light window and two three-light windows. The 1910 extension includes a stair marked externally by staggered three-light windows, with detailing similar to the front elevation. The right return has three segment-headed four-light windows, and above is a single two-light window.

Inside, the banking hall is adorned with ornate plasterwork.
