🏭 Heritage-listed building
Built: c.1890 · NIAH rating: Regional
This especially exuberant bank building was constructed for the Belfast Bank to the designs of William Lynn. The height of the building is emphasized by the Scots-Baronial-style turret attached to the east end, and the steeply hipped roof. The banking hall has survived relatively intact, despite its conversion to a public house. The highly ornate carved panels to the front elevation are the work of skilled craftsmen. The façade is ornamented with a number of Baroque features, including the swan's-neck pediments to the turret window and the main entrance. The exterior is constructed of Scottish Dumfries stone with Alloa, Newry and Labradorite granite, uncommon materials in Dublin and which set it apart from the pale granite and limestone masonry that typifies typify College Green.
