Description
The North Company Offices are a building constructed of rubble with limestone dressings and a slate roof, designed in the Flemish Gothic style. The main facade facing Talbot Street consists of three bays, with a splayed corner that continues along Castle Street as one triple bay and three single bays. The building is two storeys high. The central bay is narrower and features an arched entrance flanked by two tall paned overlights, with a frieze inscribed "NNCs 1889 Ltd." The side bays have tall three-light windows beneath a flush relieving arch, with the original top sash and two fixed lights below still intact on the west side. The upper floor of the central bay is gabled and set forward on cusped corbelling, with a central window that has a deep head inscribed "AD 1908," and a two-light cusped blind tracery window above that rises into the gable. The windows in the side bays mirror those below. The roof features a raised coped gable at the left end and is hipped at the splayed corner, topped with a metal finial.
