Description
The Midland Bank is a grand former later Georgian townhouse that has been converted into a bank and flats. It features roughcast render with stucco dressings and a hipped slate roof with tall brick lateral stacks. The building stands three storeys high with a cellar, showcasing a symmetrical frontage. It has a five-window range, with 9-pane sash windows on the top floor and 12-pane sash windows below. The design includes a platband, quoin strips, and a deep plinth.
The central doorway is framed by a square-headed doorcase with an entablature and a round-arched entrance that includes a fanlight with radiating glazing bars, leading to a 20th-century glazed door. The side elevation facing Castle Parade features a 4-window range of 12-pane sashes.
In front, there is a small enclosure formed by tall railings with thistle finials set on a rendered plinth. The gates have been reused to create returns to the main entrance, and the railings are connected to a swept side-wall on the left. The ground floor has been completely refurbished for use as a bank, while the two upper floors have been converted into flats, with no known survival of historic features.
