Description


MIDDLETON MARKET PLACE SD 80 NE 2/13 No. 3 - (Royal Bank of Scotland) - II Bank, originally the Manchester and Salford Bank. 1892. By Edgar Wood. Buff-coloured terracotta with clay tile roof. 3 bays and 3 storeys. Panelled round-arched door between bays 2 and 3 with blocked archivolt and coat of arms above. Three 3-light mullion and transom basket-arched windows within segmental recesses on the ground floor. Secondary doors to extreme left and right. Similar 4-light windows on the first and second floor the latter within bold gabled dormers. All windows have leaded lights. The gabled dormers are only narrowly divided by the plane of the roof which continues down to a deep eaves projection. Elaborate rainwater heads with rosette motifs and downpipes with flamboyant brackets convey the rainwater to a trough at first floor sill level. The trough has bead-and-reel enrichment and channels water to an internal drain. Bold ridge chimney stacks. Rear in brick, partly rendered. Interior: various internal features show Art Nouveau influence. Timber fittings, including panelled doors with carved roundels above and brass ironmongery are all of a high standard.
