2, Bridge Street

No. 2 Bridge Street is a bank, now a Building Society office, dated 1928 on the rainwater head. It features a timber frame on a brick plinth with brick nogging and plaster infilling, topped with a red tile roof. The building has an approximately rectangular plan on a corner site and is designed in a vernacular revival Jacobean style with close-studding.

It stands three storeys high, with three bays facing Bridge Street and two bays facing North Street. The Bridge Street facade includes two gabled bays that project from the main range: a wide gabled bay on the left, a narrower gabled bay in the center that is slightly set back, and the side of the main range facing North Street. The ground floor features mullion-and-transom windows beneath the jettied upper floors of the gabled bays, with a doorway to the left of the first gable and a 4-light casement window under a pentice roof at the angle with the main range. The upper floors have mullioned casement windows, while the left gable displays diamond-pattern timbering and both gables are adorned with deep carved barge-boards.

The two-bay facade facing North Street has coupled transomed windows with 8 and 12 lights at ground floor, along with a doorway to the left. The first floor features two transomed 10-light windows, and the second floor has continuous mullioned fenestration beneath coupled gables. The interior has not been inspected.
