Description
The Clydesdale Bank in New Galloway is a mid-19th century, two-storey bank building characterized by its symmetrical design. The walls are constructed from large bull-faced granite blocks, with polished granite dressings enhancing the facade. The main elevation features three bays, with advanced gabled bays on either side of a narrower polished granite gabled entrance bay.
The central doorway is deeply recessed and flanked by consoles that support a balustrade. All windows are sash and case style, with the ground floor windows having flat architraves and a consoled cornice; the lower sash consists of a single pane, while the upper sash has a six-pane glazing pattern. The first-floor windows are set in moulded architraves with four-pane glazing.
The outer bays are adorned with a polished-granite band course above the ground floor and bracket-skewputts at the eaves. The central bay features a simple scrolled gable with a cartouche tympanum, and all three gables are topped with spike finials. The building has slate roofs and tall paired octagonal chimney stacks. To the right, there is a single-storey, two-bay wing with slated piended roofs and 12-pane sashes set in architraves.
