Description
HSBC, located at Nos 62 and 64 on Market Street, is a bank built in 1891 by Goddard Paget and Goddard for the Leicestershire Banking Company. The building showcases a flamboyant architectural style with French influences. Its street-facing elevation features white stone with a pink stone plinth, topped with a green slate roof and stone chimneys. The structure is two storeys high and six bays wide, with the first and fifth bays protruding and each topped with a pyramidal gable end that has an iron finial. A stone balustrade runs along the eaves, complemented by a dentil cornice below. Pilasters separate each window bay, with Corinthian pilasters on the first floor and Ionic on the ground floor. The windows consist of two and three lights with mullions and transoms, with the ground floor featuring two transoms. All top lights have leaded glazing. The western side includes a round arched entrance with a keystone and intricate bas relief carving, while the eastern side has a smaller round arched door with simpler carving.
