Description
Ye Olde Bank House is a late 18th or early 19th century house, now a restaurant. It is constructed of brick with a stucco front, and has a Welsh slate roof with brick end stacks. The building follows a double-depth plan.
The exterior features a plain parapet. A shop front is located to the right of the centre, incorporating a frieze, cornice, and parapet over a 20th-century door with decorative glazing, and flanking canted bay windows with colonnettes. The upper lights of the bay windows also have decorative glazing, and a panel above the door features reeded framing containing raised lettering reading "YE OLD BANK HOUSE". A two-storey canted bay window to the left has cornices over plate glass sashes to the ground floor and 4/4:8/8:4/4 sashes to the first floor. The right return side has some segmental-headed windows with small-paned iron glazing with pivoted lights. The rear of the building features two gabled wings, one of which has a 10/10 sash window.
The interior has not been inspected.
The building was formerly an agency of the Bank of Tomes, Chattaway and Ford, established in the early 19th century by Richard Burman, a draper. This marked the first bank in Henley-in-Arden.
