A rare opportunity to buy a characterful and impressive former bank in the heart of a Derbyshire town will arise when the property goes up for auction.

The vacant three-storey building occupies a prime trading position on Church Street, Ripley and previously accommodated the HSBC bank.

Bids are invited for the property which has a guide price of £160,000 and offers potential for conversion into offices, restaurant or a bar (subject to planning permission).

This building retains many original features including panelling, decorative fireplaces and ornate coving. There is a good size enclosed cobbled garden at the rear.

The auction will be conducted by BTG Eddisons Property Auction on May 28, 2026. For further details, visit the BTG Eddisons website.
