In some ways a typical Portland stone bank boasting rusticated ground floor, giant Ionic colonnades and corner turrets, but, particularly for its early date, the facades are plain, for example, there are no details around any of the windows. It was built for the Mercantile Bank of Lancashire, 1898, by J. Gibbons Sankey. Grade II listed. Currently a hairdresser's at street level. The picture is besmirched by tram paraphernalia.
