GV II*
Bank. 1838. MATERIALS: Ham Hill stone ashlar with hipped slate roof and rendered stacks to sides. PLAN: double-depth plan. EXTERIOR: Late Georgian style. 3 storeys; symmetrical 3-window range, though a side entrance occupies the place of the far-left ground-floor window. Platbands between floors; rusticated quoins; banded rustication to the ground-floor, with voussoirs to 6/6-pane round-arched windows reaching the platband which bears the bank name. Steps up to the central door, the round arch of which echoes the window arches. Above this is a 6/6-pane sash set in a classical architrave with Ionic pilasters resting on a cill with consoles, and supporting a cornice and pediment: above this is a 3/6-pane sash. To outer bays, on the first-floor, are 6/6-pane tripartite sashes, with similar 3/6-pane ones above. A substantial cornice, below a parapet, supports a balustrade over the central bay, with a heraldic device bearing a lion rampant. Both doors have iron gates. INTERIOR not inspected. HISTORY: notable as one of the first purpose-built banks in the country; built for the Stuckey Banking Company, and a fine example of its type. (Bragg's Directory: 1840-; Victoria County History: Somerset: Oxford: 1978-: P.9).
