GV II

Bank. 1889 with C20 alterations. By Charles R Gribble of London for National Provincial Bank. Ashlar. Northern Baroque style. A large block. EXTERIOR: three storeys, attic and cellar. Symmetrical front; on the ground floor an Ionic colonnade of four wide bays with three-quarter columns applied to narrow piers between rusticated piers at each end, all with moulded bases on granite plinths and a crowning entablature; the doorway to the banking hall in the right-hand bay and a large plain glazed C20 window in each bay. The upper floors are recessed between piers at either end to provide a balcony with a wrought-iron balustrade above the ground floor colonnade; on the first floor a large central, canted bay with Ionic pilasters applied to the angles, two French windows to the front of the bay, single French windows to the canted sides and to the single bays at either end; above in the centre a pediment, with a wreath enclosing the initials "NB" in the tympanum; the central attic dormer, flanked by volutes, has two sashes framed by pilasters supporting a segmental pediment with a carved shell in the tympanum. INTERIOR: not inspected, believed to contain a section of Roman pavement. A good example of Gribble's work for the National Provincial Bank, which forms a good group with No.19 (qv).
