These adjoining bank buildings are both Grade II listed. Barclays is late Victorian Gothic, with slightly pointed ground floor windows. There is a cast-iron balcony to the first-floor windows and a parapet at the top with an arch motif. The HSBC was built earlier in the 19C, and is in a more Classical style that has evolved from the Georgian period, although it has a Gothic parapet with castellations.
