Description
The Midland Bank, originally The Yorkshire Banking Company, is a bank building dating from around 1900, designed by Bedford and Kitson. It is constructed of sandstone ashlar with a plain tiled roof and is designed in a free 17th century style. The building has two storeys and features large gabled dormers. The main entrance is located to the right and is accompanied by a porch. The building has mullion windows, with those on the first floor framed by pilasters that rest on a band with cornices above. Between the two first floor windows, there is a plaque carved with a shield that includes a cross and a Tudor-rose design. Inside, the ground floor public room has a beamed ceiling that is decorated with a similar entwined Tudor-rose motif.
