Description

Wenning Bank is a former Sandemanian meeting house that has been converted into a house. It dates from the early 19th century but has origins from the late 17th century and has undergone alterations in the 20th century. The building is rendered with stone dressings and features a tiled roof. It has a central staircase plan and stands two storeys high with three bays.

The entrance, located to the right of the center, has a plain surround and features a 20th-century plank door. To the right on the ground floor is a late 18th-century window, while the left side has a 20th-century lean-to. On the upper floor, there are three windows; those on the left and right have plain surrounds, projecting sills, and 16-pane sash windows. The central window is larger, with a plain surround, moulded impost blocks, a round head, and a keystone, featuring a 9-pane casement and a fixed light with Gothick glazing in the round head. The gable ends have kneelers, coping, and ridge stacks.

At the rear, there is a late 17th-century three-light chamfered window on the right side of the ground floor, along with 20th-century casements. Inside, there is a panelled dog-leg staircase leading to the former chapel on the upper floor.
