Bank House - 1 Burton Street. It is not known when the house was built, but it has Georgian features, which probably dates it to between 1790 and 1830. In the early 1800s, it was used as the premises for Wakefield Savings Bank, until 1892, when it belonged to Edward Lodge, a private resident. From 1904, it became a solicitors office for Dixon and Horn, later Dixon, Coles and Gill. It is a Grade II Listed building.
