History

Bank building, earlier C19 terraced house, front remodelled in 1925 for Barclays Bank to plans by J. H. Morgan of Carmarthen. The building was then called Bank House, but it is not known how long it had been a bank. Old photographs show a plain terraced house with two ground floor canted bays and centre pedimented doorcase.

Upper floors have raised angle pilasters, the caps slightly higher than deep bracketed eaves. Windows in moulded surrounds, top floor nine-pane sashes with moulded sill course, first floor long 15-pane sashes, the surrounds shouldered with brackets to sills and centre window with shallow shouldered pediment. Ground floor six-bay front with overall frieze and cornice. Seven chamfered pilasters with moulded caps, neck rings. Deep chamfered plinth between pilaster bases, sunk panels under five C20 plate glass windows with 6-pane top lights, the right window altered for cash dispenser. Left bay has similar overlight but over a moulded cornice over double panelled doors.
