Allied Irish Bank

Pair of terraced two-bay two-storey houses, built c.1850, converted for use as bank and extended to rear, c.1900. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Cast-iron rainwater goods with decorative brackets to gutter. Rendered walls having stucco quoins, string course and cornice to ground floor. Stucco pilasters with flared bases flanking doors and windows, heavy consoles to doorways with scrolls and masks. Square-headed window openings to first floor and round-headed to ground, all in square-headed moulded stucco surrounds with keystones, all having replacement uPVC windows. Ornamental cast-iron window-guards to ground floor. Replacement timber panelled doors with plain over-lights.

The stucco embellishments added when these buildings became a bank has resulted in the most ornamental façade in the town, highlighting the financial importance of the services provided within. The bank remains a landmark building on the main street today.
