Royal Bank Of Scotland, 60 Main Street, Thornton

The Royal Bank of Scotland, located at 60 Main Street in Thornton, is a mid to late 19th century building that serves as both a bank and a residence for the bank manager. It is a two-storey structure with an attic, featuring three bays and positioned on a corner site within an irregular terrace to the south. The exterior is constructed of squared and coursed rubble and harl, accented with ashlar dressings. It has a base course, deep eaves lintel course, and a cornice, with openings that are corniced at the ground level and include stone mullions.

The west elevation, which serves as the entrance, is symmetrical. It features a deeply set, two-leaf panelled timber door at the center, framed by a pilastered doorcase with a cornice and block pediment. Flanking this are bipartite windows with raised aprons. The first floor has a large modern fascia board at the center and bipartite windows in the side bays. Above, there is a bipartite timber dormer window at the center.

On the north elevation, there is a door at the center and a bipartite bank window in the bay to the right of center, along with an additional window to the right on the first floor and a flat-roofed stair tower to the outer left.

The south elevation features a single-storey cottage adjoining the ground level, with a partial chimney breast projecting off-center to the left.

The east elevation's details at the ground level are obscured by a high boundary wall. It has four bays, each with a window; the windows in bays two and four are located in projecting stair towers, while bipartite dormer windows are positioned over bays one and three.

The building has plate glass glazing, with the lower sashes at ground level partially etched, and a 12-pane glazing pattern in the dormers, all set within timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slates, and features coped and harled gablehead stacks with cans, ashlar coped skews, and cast iron downpipes with decorative rainwater hoppers.

Inside, the ground floor includes cornicing with egg and dart moulding. The boundary walls surrounding the property are flat coped rubble walls.
