National Westminster Bank

The National Westminster Bank, located at 288 Green Lanes, is a bank building designed in 1913 by Arthur Sykes. It features purple brick with handmade red brick dressings and rusticated quoins, topped with a hipped plain tile roof. The building has brick end stacks with oversailing courses and moulded bases for grouped flues. It is laid out in an L-plan with a rear right wing in Neo-Georgian style, standing three storeys tall with a symmetrical five-window range.

On the ground floor, there are three semi-circular arched openings with rusticated red brick surrounds and keystones, which front revealed windows. A Portland stone cill band runs beneath the first-floor windows, which are topped with red brick flat arches with keystones over 15-pane sash windows on the first floor and 12-pane sash windows on the second floor. The second-floor windows have eared red brick aprons and modillioned wood eaves. The right end wall has a similar one-bay design and fenestration, and the rear of the building mirrors this style.

The two-storey rear wing features a purple brick first floor above a red brick ground floor. A keyed round window is located next to a six-panelled door set in an eared stone architrave. Casement windows are set in mullioned stone architraves, and there is a corner turret with a conical roof. A moulded stone string course extends from the turret as a ramped parapet over the one-storey rear range, which includes a similar round window. The interior of the building has not been inspected.
