Former Bank of England, Grade I listed bank building in Broad Street, Bristol, England.
The limestone ashlar structure rises three stories high with giant Doric columns and features a central banking hall in an L-shaped layout.
Charles Robert Cockerell designed this branch of the Bank of England, which opened in 1847 during Britain's period of industrial and economic growth.
The building reflects the Greek Revival architectural style of the 1840s through its symmetrical design, triglyphs, and ornate cast-iron interior elements.
Located at coordinates 51.45525, -2.594, the former bank now houses the Bristol Citizens Advice Bureau and stands near other historical structures.
The interior contains a cantilevered stone staircase with paired cast-iron balusters and stained glass illumination in the passageway.
