Description
Old Bank House, built between 1830 and 1840, was originally a single house that included a hatter's shop, as noted on the Tithe Map. A photograph from 1914 shows the building in use. It has since been altered into a shop with a separate dwelling next door.
The building consists of a pair of three-storey houses with cellars, featuring a three-window range. The exterior is made of yellow brick in Flemish bond, with a stone plinth and a cornice with modillions. The slate roof has gable end stacks made of yellow brick. The northern dwelling has paired small-pane sash windows on the upper floors, with 16 panes on the first floor and 12 panes on the second floor, all topped with wedge lintels above the first-floor windows. The ground floor has a similar window to the left of the entrance, which features a nine-panel door (though three panels are very small) with an overlight set within an architrave and panelled reveals. The entablature extends across the shop front of Deri Dental Practice, which has paired windows divided into six panes each, with panelled aprons and a modern replacement door to the right. Above, there is a small-paned tripartite sash window with a wedge lintel, and on the second storey, there is a 12-pane sash window along with two 12-pane sash windows with stressed quoins in the rendered gable end.
The interior was not accessible during the inspection in September 1995. The building is listed as a well-preserved house with a later shop front, situated in a prominent location that contributes to the townscape and has group value.
