Adelphi Bank Building, Grade II* listed Victorian bank building in Castle Street, Liverpool, England.

The Adelphi Bank Building rises four stories with red and yellow sandstone above a granite base, featuring ornate architectural details throughout its facade.

William Douglas Caroe designed this commercial building in 1892 during Liverpool's economic growth period when the city emerged as a financial center.

The bronze entrance doors display relief sculptures by Thomas Stirling Lee depicting historical and mythological pairs including David and Jonathan, and Achilles and Patroclus.

The structure maintains its Grade II* listing status, requiring specific permissions for any modifications while the ground floor operates as a Caffe Nero branch.

The building combines French Renaissance architecture with Nordic and Eastern European design elements, creating a distinct representation of Victorian commercial architecture.
