Bank House Numbers 2 And 3

Bank House, now numbered 2 and 3, is a building that began as part of a larger house, later divided into two dwellings. It dates from the mid-18th century and the early 19th century, and has been altered since. The building is constructed of coursed limestone with ashlar sandstone dressings, and has Welsh slate and stone slate roofs.

The three-storey section, dating to the mid-18th century, features large quoins. The front has a four-window arrangement, with a small single-storey wing to the right. The main entrance, in the altered opening of bay 2, features a six-panel door and overlight. Bay 1 contains an enlarged window with a 6/6 sash; bays 3 and 4 have leaded casements within mullioned, square-faced two-light surrounds. The first floor has a plain ashlar surround to a 2/2 sash in bay 1, and three 6/6 sashes with thick glazing bars. The second floor has a 2/2 sash, a painted blind window, and then two 6/6 sashes, all with plain surrounds topped by a lintel band. The building has a coped parapet, gable coping, and brick end stacks. The 19th-century single-storey wing has paired 2/2 sashes within a mullioned stone surround, a part-glazed door on the right, and a stone slate roof.

At the rear, a stair projection under a catslide roof incorporates a tall cross-window with a square-faced surround and a low transom. There is also a two-storey lean-to on the left. The interior of the building was not inspected. It was once interlocked with and had internal access to number 1 Bank House. The building was previously used as a school. Number 2 occupies part of the three-storey range, while number 3 occupies the remainder, including the side wing.
