Including The Royal Bank Of Scotland, 22 And 24 Lainshaw Street

The building, which includes The Royal Bank of Scotland at 22 and 24 Lainshaw Street, was designed by Peddie and Kinnear and constructed between 1858 and 1860. It is a three-storey, three-bay classical palazzo-style bank building that features a manager's house above, now converted into flats, and has a single-storey extension at the rear. The street-facing (north) side is finished in sandstone ashlar with raised margins, while the rear is made of coursed rubble. Architectural details include a base course, moulded cill band courses, a string course, and overhanging eaves with decorative carved exposed rafters. The ground and first floors have segmental-arched bipartite windows with Corinthian columned mullions. A six-panelled timber door on the west side leads to the flats.

Further details include central two-leaf, six-panelled timber doors set within a shouldered-arched doorway, which is framed by a segmental-arched door surround with console brackets and a decorative cornice. The ground floor features two-pane over plate glass timber sash and case windows, while the upper storeys have replacement windows. The roof is piended and covered with grey slates, and there are wallhead stacks with some decorative cans.

The interior, partially seen in 2008, has been largely modernised on the ground floor, while some cornicing remains in the flats above. There is also coloured glass in the stair windows.
