Description

The Clydesdale Bank, located at 25-27 High Street in Lockerbie, is a two-storey corner block designed by Walter Newall, dating from the earlier to mid-19th century. The building features three-bay elevations constructed of bull-faced red ashlar laid in graded courses, with polished raised margins and dressings. The windows are plate glass sashes with projecting cills, and there is a walled garden to the west of the manager's house.

The openings of the building are adorned with deep cavetto cornices, although the central door on the main road has had its cornice removed to accommodate a sign. Additional architectural details include a wide angle margin, an eaves course, and a cornice supported by paired decorative cast-iron brackets. The building has axial stacks with original fireclay flues, also featuring cavetto cornices, and a piended, roughly U-plan slate roof.

The south flank elevation, facing Victoria Road, includes a double central doorway with a shared cornice and a narrow light between the doors. To the left is a good panelled door, while the door to the right has been converted into a window. At the rear, there is a plain early 20th-century ashlar-faced wing that faces rubble.
