Former Lloyds Bank, Elvaston Road, Ryton
The west end of the former Victorian shopping parade on Elvaston Road Image, now mostly converted to residential use, but some of the shop fronts have been retained. One of the shops has an oriel window topped by a turret with a spire. It was built as an observatory.
