59 Bridge Street

59 Bridge Street is a tall late Victorian business building featuring classic detailing. It is attached on either side, projecting from the Bank on the left. The exterior is roughcast rendered with contrasting stucco dressings, and it has a slate roof topped with a tall, decoratively rendered corniced chimney. The building stands three storeys high, showcasing elaborate raised dressings throughout. These include wide scored pilastered quoins at the first floor, which are paired at the second floor with bracket capitals supporting an overhanging fully bracketed pediment. There are moulded string courses, window surrounds with keystones, eared architraves, hoodmoulds with stops, and bracketed sills. The main projecting bay has three storeys, featuring triple round-arched lights in the attic and double segmental-arched sash windows on the first floor, with narrow side windows on the returns. To the right, there is a narrower three-storey bay set back, and at the far right, a lower single-storey bay with a steeply pitched slate roof. The ground floor has a renewed double shopfront.
