Description

Bank House is an early 19th-century house located on Aylestone Hill in Hereford. It is constructed of brick and features a hipped Welsh slate roof, along with brick end stacks that have stone bands. The house is two storeys high and has a symmetrical three-window front, with 8/8 sash windows that have painted sills and reveals. The central entrance consists of a four-panel door with an overlight, set beneath a deep frieze and cornice supported by Doric pilasters. A painted storey band and a firemark are also present.

Inside, the house features a dogleg staircase with stick balusters and turned newels. On the first floor, there are three four-panel doors and architraves, windows with architraves, a picture rail, and three six-panel doors with architraves. The ground floor includes three four-panel doors, a panelled riser to a window, coving, a plank door, and a panelled door leading to the cellar. The cellar has masonry lining and a stack base.
