Rendered walls with raised panels between first floor openings, render sill courses to ground floor openings and with render cornice having dentilated brackets forming first floor sill course.

Square-headed door opening with render doorcase comprising of fluted pilasters with scroll consoles supporting entablature, surrounding double-leaf timber panelled door and margined overlight.
Occupying a prominent position on the Main Street, this building makes a positive contribution to the streetscape. It is an interesting twentieth century addition to a predominantly nineteenth century streetscape. Taking inspiration from classical architecture, its mannered features, such as the elongated windows and simplified render detailing, are typical of contemporary banking architecture.
