Adelphi Bank Building, Grade II* listed Victorian bank building in Castle Street, Liverpool, England.
Adelphi Bank Building is a four-story structure clad in red and yellow sandstone above a granite base, located on Castle Street in Liverpool. The facade features ornate architectural details throughout, including decorative stonework and embellished trim.
William Douglas Caroe designed this building in 1892 during a period when Liverpool was establishing itself as a major financial center. Its construction coincided with the city's growing economic importance in international trade.
The bronze entrance doors display relief sculptures by Thomas Stirling Lee depicting historical and mythological pairs. These artistic details reflect the craftsmanship valued in Victorian commercial buildings of this era.
The building maintains a protected heritage status that affects any alterations to its structure. A cafe occupies the ground floor, providing an accessible entry point to experience the ornate interior spaces.
The structure combines French Renaissance elements with Nordic and Eastern European design influences. This distinctive architectural blend sets it apart from typical Victorian commercial buildings found in the area.
