Description
The National Westminster Bank is a two-storey building designed in a Classical style. It features a rendered and painted exterior, a shallow-pitched slate roof, and a tall, narrow rendered corniced end cross-ridge stack. The building has raised and staggered quoins, an eaves band, eared architraves, and shallow bracketed sills. On the first floor, there is a three-window range of 6-pane sash windows. The ground floor is accessed by shallow steps leading up to a grand central porch, which has a deep entablature with billet moulding supported by paired fluted columns with lotus-leaf capitals and rear pilasters. The door consists of three horizontal panels. On either side of the doorway, there are paired plate glass windows with surrounds that match the architectural details of the porch. The building also features a plinth.
