34 and 34A North Castle Street, Edinburgh

109 George Street in Edinburgh is a classical tenement building dating from around 1785, with some alterations made in the early 20th century at the ground level. It stands three storeys high, with a basement and attic, located on a corner site that features a bank on the ground floor and a bar in the basement to the north. The exterior is made of droved cream sandstone ashlar with polished dressings, and it has long and short quoins at the corner.

On the George Street elevation, the building has four bays, with the right bay being broader and slightly displaced. The projecting ashlar ground floor features a canted corner, a base course, a cornice, and a blocking course. At the centre, there are a pair of recessed windows framed by stylised fluted pilasters, along with a similar doorway at the corner. The two canted piend-roofed dormers are displaced to the left.

The Castle Street elevation consists of a three-bay gable and a two-bay wing, with the basement housing the public bar. The bank's facade continues in the centre and left bays of the gable, featuring a similar pair of windows. The right bay has steps leading to a corniced architraved door adorned with a decorative rectangular fanlight, and there are two windows in the gablehead. The two-bay wing includes a pilastered and corniced bar in the raised basement, with a later window inserted at ground level and a canted piend-roofed dormer to the right.

The building features 12-pane timber sash and case windows, ashlar coped skews, rendered stacks, and grey slates. Inside, there is a modestly modernised bank on the ground floor. Additionally, there are plain cast-iron railings along Castle Street.
