Extant Building
An imposing 3 storey corner building, with an all stone faƧade complete with 2nd and 3rd storey columns. The former Lloyds TSB bank was built between 1905-1910 for Lloyds Bank Ltd. It remained functioning as a bank until it became redundant in c.2006. The ground floor contained the main banking area while the upper floors contained offices. The rooms still retain some origianl early 20th century features such as skirting boards, coving, doors, staircases and window fittings. Externally, the main elevations which face onto Shields Road and Heaton Road contain a wealth of architectural detailing. The former bank is to be converted for residential use and was recorded by WAA in 2014. The building was described as being in a good state of repair despite being unoccupied. LOCAL LIST
