Description
Barclays Bank is a former town house dating from around 1780, designed in the Adam style. The ground floor was remodeled in a neo-Georgian style during the 1960s. The building is constructed of ashlar stone and features a gabled roof covered with Bradstone tiles, along with a stone stack at the southern end.
It stands three storeys high and has three bays, with the central bay slightly projecting above the ground floor. The first floor showcases a prominent Venetian window with Ionic capitals and fluted abaci, flanked by blind niches adorned with fans and paterae on the abaci. A band above the piano nobile transitions into a projecting cornice across the central bay. Above this, there is another band at the sill level of the upper windows. The upper central window is a six-pane sash with a flat hood supported by leaf-carved consoles, while plain, deeply recessed six-pane sashes are located on either side.
The ground floor has been remodeled to feature three round-arched openings, with sashes in the two left-hand bays and a reused late 18th-century four-panel door on the right-hand side, complete with a patterned fanlight.
