Description

The Midland Bank is a Renaissance-style building dating from the 19th century, featuring a single storey and a basement. It has an asymmetrical entrance front with two bays and a three-window front facing High Street. The exterior is constructed of channelled ashlar with a rusticated plinth, topped by a steeply pitched green slate hipped roof and an ashlar chimney stack with banding. A high balustraded parapet is adorned with dividing pilasters, a modillion cornice, a plain entablature, and a moulded architrave.

To the right of the entrance, there is a recessed two-light window with a stone mullion, timber transom, and flanking Tuscan Doric columns in antis. A similar window is located at the centre of the High Street elevation, flanked by single-light windows. All windows feature architraves and advanced blind panels below the cills. The entrance porch is positioned at the corner on Gemig Street, topped with a pediment over a stepped forward doorcase. This area includes an Egg and Dart cornice, lion's head brackets, a bolection moulded architrave with a swag-bordered and dated cartouche, and ornamented pilaster strips. The porch has panelled reveals and double panelled doors. There is an iron railing at the corner and a stepped low parapet wall along High Street, which includes small pane metal frame casement windows. The rear of the building is constructed of Ruabon brick and features modern flat roof extensions.

Inside, the building retains a circular swagged plaster moulding on the ceiling, a dentil cornice, and half-glazed inner double doors.
