Description
9 Bank Street is a Georgian townhouse that is attached on one side and is currently used as offices with a restaurant at the rear. The exterior walls are rendered with roughcast, and the roof is slate, partly artificial, and hipped at one end. The building has an L-shaped plan and stands three storeys tall. It features a moulded cornice at the parapet, platbands, stepped sills, and a plinth.
The front has a three-window range of sashes set in exposed moulded wooden frames within shallow reveals. The top floor has 16-pane sashes, with the central window featuring Gothick glazing bars and a keystone. The first floor has paired 12-pane sashes, with the central window being a 16-pane sash that includes Gothick blocked tracery and a keystone above a round arch. The ground floor has 20th-century plate glass windows on either side of a central square-headed doorway, which is topped with an enriched pedimented bracketed hood and has an architrave around a fielded panel door.
A passage on the side, shared with number 10, has two chamfered beams and segmental arches, providing access to the long side elevation that has a steeper-pitched roof and rendered ridge stacks. This side retains tripartite and other sash windows, some with segmental heads. At the end of this elevation is a studded boarded door and a surviving medieval stone window featuring a heavy moulded hood over an arched light with ferramenta. The rear gable end is made of unrendered stone and includes a restaurant entrance with a 20th-century doorway, along with an attached brick wall that has pointed archways.
Inside, there is a central hall that leads to a staircase running parallel to the frontage, featuring a ramped handrail and turned balusters. The interior includes round arched doorways with moulded architraves and keystones, as well as other segmental arches. It retains wide panelled doors, some of which have panelled reveals.
