Description
Lloyds Bank is a large, three-storey building constructed of red brick and Bath stone. It features a slate roof and lacks any chimney stacks. The ground floor has an ashlar front with a corniced fascia that runs across the entire width, supported by paired brackets. It includes a seven-bay arrangement of doors and windows, each with a moulded depressed-arched head and a two-light mullioned overlight, which has moulded curved upper angles and stained glass. The doors and windows have been modernized, reversing the original arrangement. The central door has a plain ashlar tympanum inscribed with 'Established 1782 Bank'.
The upper floors are made of red brick, with an ashlar cornice separating the floors and ashlar window tracery for the tripartite sash windows. These windows have moulded frames with curved angles for each light and are framed by raised brick piers. Similar angle piers with cornices and a smaller eaves cornice project forward over each pier. The left window on the first floor was replaced around 1900 with a large painted timber canted oriel window featuring sashes, pilaster piers, and a panelled frieze below the cornice. An iron flower balcony is located above this window.
Original cast iron downpipes are positioned on either side of the facade, cutting through the cornices. Old photographs reveal that there were brick end stacks and panelled doors. The interior banking hall has been completely altered.
