4, Church Street

This former savings bank, now offices and commercial premises, was built around 1850. It is constructed of coursed, roughly dressed lias stone with ashlar quoins, brickwork, and a tile roof topped with a brick stack. The building comprises a tall gabled main block with a short rear wing, both featuring steep-pitched roofs. The architectural style is Tudor Gothic.

The building has two storeys and an attic, with two two-light stone mullioned casement gabled dormers at the eaves, displaying raised and coped verges. The unusually high first floor has a canted stone oriel window with a 1:2:1-light arrangement featuring four-centred heads to the lights above and below the transom. The weathered stone capping to the oriel has a brattished edge, and the bracket supporting it is richly moulded, carrying a band with sunk quatrefoil panels. The central panel of this band displays "Savings Bank" in Gothic script. The ground floor has been altered with a late 20th-century shop front, although a timber gate to the right provides access to a throughway serving properties behind. A stone string course runs across the building at the top of the oriel bracket, and a moulded stone eaves band is present. The roof has raised and coped verges and moulded kneelers. A stone stack is raised in brick to the left. The rear of the building continues the Tudor Gothic character and is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings. The interior has not been inspected.
