Bank Of Scotland, 10 Market Square, Duns

The Bank of Scotland, located at 10 Market Square in Duns, is an earlier 20th-century building that stands three stories tall with two bays, situated on a corner site. It is constructed of dressed cream sandstone with polished ashlar dressings. The building features a base course, with polished ashlar at the ground level and a moulded band course above. The windows have ashlar mullions and transoms at the ground and first floors, with mullions at the second floor, raised margins at the ground level, and shorter second-floor windows positioned close to the eaves. The eaves are heavily moulded.

On the west elevation facing Market Square, there are paired tripartite windows at the ground level. To the left, there is a two-leaf panelled door with a raised architrave and keystone, and above it, a blind panel framed by a bracketed cornice. To the right, there is a panelled and glazed door leading to the upper floors. The upper floors consist of two bays, featuring tripartite windows at the first floor and paired bipartite windows in each bay at the second floor.

The north elevation facing Easter Street shows a two-bay principal block. At the ground level, there is a bipartite window to the left and a tripartite window to the right. The first floor has bipartite windows, while the second floor has a bipartite window to the left and a blank wall to the right, with a wallhead stack. To the left, there is a single two-storey bay with a bipartite window at both the ground and first floors (with only a mullion at the first floor) and plain eaves. A modern single-storey link is set back to the left.

The east elevation at the rear features a pair of gables, with the left gable being dry-dashed and the right constructed of stone. There is a gabled two-storey wing projecting to the right and a modern single-storey rendered extension at the ground level, with irregular fenestration.

The building has multi-pane timber casement windows, with plate glass at the ground level and sash and case windows at the rear. The roof is piended and pitched, covered with grey slates, and features corniced ashlar stacks and ashlar coped skews.
