Description
This is a mid-to-later 19th century bank building, potentially incorporating fabric from 1836. It is an L-plan structure with five bays on the principal facade and two storeys, featuring a prominent conical-roofed entrance tower. The exterior is constructed of squared and snecked rubble, designed to resemble ashlar, with ashlar dressings. A string course and cornice are visible on the tower. The windows feature stepped hoodmoulds, stone mullions, and raised, tabbed, stop-chamfered margins.
The west (principal) elevation includes an engaged tower to the right of centre, with a raised entrance and a hoodmoulded timber door consisting of two boarded leaves and flanking narrow lights. A small window is positioned above the door at the first floor, also with flanking lights. A decorative cast-iron weathervane finial sits atop the conical roof. To the outer right is a single-storey bay with a hoodmoulded tripartite window and decorative bargeboarding within a finialled gablehead. The bay to the left of centre features a gabled stone porch, containing a hoodmoulded panelled timber door and flanking narrow lights, with a bipartite window above. Windows are present on each floor in the bay to the right, with one breaking the eaves into a finialled dormerhead. A broad, advanced, finialled gable is positioned to the left.
The south (Toberargan Road) elevation is a single-storey gabled section featuring a hoodmoulded wide-centre tripartite window. The north elevation is symmetrical, with eight bays and two windows to each floor in the outer gabled bays. The right-hand bay is slightly advanced, and two further windows are present on each floor of the centre bays. The rear (east) elevation is irregular, exhibiting a variety of elements, including an advanced wing to the right and a single-storey bay to the left.
The windows are timber sash and case, with 10- and 12-pane, and 4- and plate glass glazing patterns. The roof is covered with grey slates, with a fishscale pattern to the turret roof. Coped ashlar stacks incorporate polygonal cans. Eaves overhang with decorative bargeboarding.
The interior features decorative plasterwork cornicing, part-glazed screen doors, and mosaic tiled vestibules, with the words 'BANK OF SCOTLAND' displayed in the tower vestibule.
An ancillary building with a slated and piended roof, rectangular in plan and constructed of rubble, includes openings to the west.
Pyramidally-coped, stop-chamfered, square section, ashlar gatepiers, rubble boundary walls with inset decorative cast-iron railings are situated to the south.
