Description

A 5-bay 2-storey stuccoed block in Italianate style. Main entrance faces south. South elevation: gabled roof of Bangor blue slates in regular courses. One chimney, smooth rendered, with cornice and frieze; four stub pots. Walling is of painted render, smooth to upper storey, rusticated to lower storey, with moulded plinth, quoins to extremities, plain platband at first floor level, moulded eaves cornice and frieze with paired shaped brackets. Built in 1886 as a branch of the Ulster Bank, to the designs of Thomas Jackson, architect, of Belfast. This branch closed in 2022, but it is hopeful that the potential of this building will be realised and it wont lay vacant for long. When reviewed in 2025 the building was in a fair to Good condition and has recently been sold. Once occupied this structure will no longer be deemed at risk.
