Description
The Clydesdale Bank, located at 2 and 4 Inglis Street in Inverness, was built around 1845 in the Renaissance style. The building is constructed of ashlar stone and features a channelled ground floor. It has three storeys and an attic, with a four-bay front facing Eastgate. The first-floor windows are framed with architraves, which include consoled pediments and aprons, while the second-floor windows are simply architraved. The south-west corner of the building is bowed, with an architraved first-floor window that has a consoled segmental pediment, and a second-floor window that is also architraved.
On the Inglis Street side, there is a three-bay front, with the right-hand two windows slightly advanced and featuring architraves, consoled pediments, and aprons on the first floor, while the other windows are architraved. The ground floor was altered for banking use by Matthews & Lawrie in 1877, displaying four windows set between channelled strip pilasters on the Eastgate side, along with a wide segmental arched doorway flanked by columns and featuring a coat of arms carved in the tympanum. The building is topped with a cornice and parapet, which is raised between scrolls at the centre of the Eastgate front and elevated as a chimney stack on the Inglis Street front. Piended dormers are also present.
