Description
Barclay's Bank is a bank building constructed with painted stucco, featuring three storeys and a three-window range that is slightly offset to the left. The building has a five-bay parapet divided by piers with moulded coping, sitting above a moulded band. The first and second floor windows are adorned with ornate stucco surrounds that are linked vertically. The first floor windows are set within shouldered architraves, featuring pulvinated friezes and moulded cornices, which support sloping plinths for scrolled cast-iron flower balconies. The upper windows have moulded architraves with diamond-facetted keystones and lotus-flower motifs above. The second floor windows are sash windows with margin lights. The first floor includes French windows, likely from the early 20th century, with metal glazing, marginal panes, arched long main panes, and roundel panes above. The iron rails have two diagonally-crossed panels between upright rails.
The ground floor displays plain channelled rustication with a plain fascia, which is obscured by a modern bank fascia, and a moulded cornice. The openings are not aligned; there are two tall narrow ones flanking two large square ones, all with moulded architraves, and the outer ones feature keystones. There is modern infill to the left of the former door, a modern entrance to the first large square opening, and plate-glass with moulded sills to the second large opening and the narrow right opening, with both sills breaking the plinth. The rear of the building has large 20th-century stepped flat-roofed additions. The ground floor has been wholly altered.
