Description
Lloyds Bank is a town house that was built in 1716 and later raised by one storey in the mid-19th century. It was converted into a bank in the early 20th century. The building is constructed of yellow brick with red brick dressings and features a flat lead roof with brick end stacks.
The exterior has three storeys and a six-window front. To the left of the centre, there is a rusticated doorcase with a replacement door, set within a porch supported by Roman Doric columns, featuring a metope frieze and a segmental pediment. On the left side, there are two segment-arched horned sash windows without glazing bars, while on the right side, there are three similar windows, with the rightmost one converted into a cash machine. All windows have brick aprons and gauged arches with keyblocks. The first and second floors each have six similar sash windows. A moulded brick cornice from the original front is visible below the added third storey, and a plain parapet conceals the roof.
The interior has been converted into a banking hall, and while the upper floors were not inspected, they are likely to be of interest.
