Bank Of Scotland, 12 Church Street, Stranraer

The Bank of Scotland, located at 12 Church Street in Stranraer, is a classical townhouse built in 1837. It is a three-storey building with an attic and features a four-bay L-plan layout, including a circular stair tower at the rear. The sides and ground floor are harled, while the upper storeys are finished in painted ashlar. Notable architectural details include a base course, a band course separating the ground and first floors, a cornice, and a blocking course, along with painted margins at the ground level and remains of quoins on the upper stories.

On the entrance elevation, there are fluted columns and a corniced entablature framing the doorway located in the penultimate bay to the left, which has a two-leaf timber door and a fanlight above. Single windows are aligned above the entrance, and the other bays feature regular fenestration. The attic includes canted dormers on the outer left and right sides.

The rear elevation showcases a central circular stair tower topped with a pepperpot roof, alongside a rectangular two-bay extension to the north. The building predominantly features four-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slate and has piended sections, with coped gablehead stacks that have corniced cans and stone skews.

The interior was not seen in 1997.
