Central entrance with replacement timber panelled door in stone surround comprising engaged columns having fluted capitals with paterae supporting cornice and semi-circular fanlight with decorative petal glazing in moulded archivolt.

Ashlar wall to east having elliptical-headed carriage arch of stone voussoirs, now infilled by rendered masonry and incorporating automatic teller machine.

A well-proportioned building located in a prominent site at the junction of Church Street and Main Street. It has a balanced symmetrical façade composition, enhanced by the tripartite windows and finely detailed Classical doorcase. Use as a bank for over one hundred years, the building forms a part of the economic and social heritage of Killashandra. It remains an important component of the streetscape, contributing to the irregular streetline and varied roofscape of the town.
