Description
Bank House is a house built in 1828. It is constructed from coursed squared limestone with gritstone dressings and features chamfered quoins. The roof is made of stone slate, and the gables are stone coped with plain kneelers. There are stone gable end stacks topped with simple cornices and a plain eaves band. The building has three storeys and three bays.
On the south elevation, there is a central semi-circular headed doorcase with a moulded architrave and imposts. The door has a projecting keystone decorated with a flower, and it is a fielded and beaded panelled door. Above the door is a fanlight with radiating tracery. On either side of the door, there are plain sash windows in flush surrounds. Above these, there are three similar windows, and above again, there are two similar windows with an elliptical plaque between them inscribed: 'ERECTED in 1828 by BANKS, GEORGE and ELIZABETH'.
