Bank of England Building, Liverpool, Grade I listed building in Castle Street, Liverpool, England
The Bank of England Building stands three bays wide and seven bays deep, featuring four Doric columns connecting the ground and first floors.
Charles Robert Cockerell designed this Neoclassical structure, which operated as a Bank of England branch from its completion in 1848 until 1987.
The building represents Liverpool's financial growth during the Victorian era, when the city established itself as a major commercial center.
Located at 31 Castle Street, the structure will transform into a restaurant operated by The Ivy group following approval from Liverpool City Council.
The building sits on a rough granite plinth and maintains an austere interior, differing from other local banks that display marble and gilded decorations.
