Barlcays Bank

Barclays Bank, formerly known as Buckingham House, is a bank with offices above, dating from the mid 18th century and featuring 20th-century alterations. The building has five windows, two storeys, and attics. It is constructed of red and brown brick, with quoins and a parapet made of red brick, a gauged brick string course, and a moulded timber fascia-gutter with dentils. The roof is plaintiled and features hipped plaintiled dormers with small pane sash windows, along with gable chimneys made of red brick. The sash windows have flat arches of gauged red brick, although the sashes were replaced in the 20th century without glazing bars.

The entrance consists of a pair of three-panelled doors with an architrave and an oblong fanlight that has radial glazing bars. The doors are recessed between panelled reveals and topped with an entablature supported by Doric columns, leading up to limestone steps. To the left is an annexe (No. 60), which has two windows, a storey, and attics, and may have previously served as stabling but has been much altered in the 20th century. This section is also made of red brick, featuring a parapet and string course, and has a slated 20th-century mansard roof with recessed dormers. The sash windows here also have gauged brick flat arches, and the sashes were replaced in the 20th century. The entrance doorway is identical to that of No. 58 and may be a 20th-century copy.

Inside, there is some fine joinery from the mid to late 18th century on the first floor, including a fine staircase leading to the second floor with a moulded handrail, turned balusters, and newels with drop finials. The landing and several rooms feature sunk-panel led dados, window shutters, three-panel doors, and other notable joinery.
