Originally a branch of Lloyd's Bank built in the nineteenth century, but closed its doors to customers. Instead, the building has been used as a restaurant and is now also home to a theatre group. Interestingly, the carved stonework states it was established in (Roman numerals) in 1778; Taylors & Lloyds was opened as a private bank in Birmingham in June 1765.
