Midland Bank

This is a late 19th-century bank located on Barras Street in Liskeard. It is constructed of granite ashlar and dressed granite, with a concealed roof behind a granite parapet and a granite stack to the left. The building follows a double-depth plan.

The two-storey bank has a regular four-window facade. Original 12-pane horned sash windows are set within moulded stone architraves, sitting on a moulded stone string course above a continuous granite apron. Stepped keyblocks are positioned above the windows, linking to a moulded string as the architrave to the parapet. Further detailing includes an entablature with a plain ashlar frieze, a heavy moulded cornice, and a blocking course.

The ground floor features a four-bay engaged Tuscan colonnade surmounted by a moulded entablature with mutules to the cornice. Channelled rustication defines the window openings. A round-arched doorway is located on the left, now with 20th-century doors and a plain fanlight. Above this are three 20th-century plate-glass windows with moulded sills and panelled aprons.

Inside, the building has moulded and dentilled ceiling cornices and a dogleg staircase with rectangular balusters. The bank is included on the list for its group value.
