The building was constructed in 1864 and has probably survived unscathed apart from the odd bit of damage during the Second World War. The facade has been cleaned and probably looks much better sans the grime of the city.

The building is Grade II* listed with the entry at the English Heritage website telling us:

1864, by Aitchison. Distinguished Portland stone building of 4 storeys in modified Byzantine style. Ground storey has segmental window arches and pair of columns to inset, principal entrance. Frieze above with incised decoration. Upper storeys arcaded with carved caps to columns. Decorative bands and ornament in low relief. Simplified cornice. Glazing altered. Internal construction originally of iron, but now apparently replaced or encased.
