The Allied Irish Bank on Stephen Street is a fine example of a Renaissance style building.

The present day bank building was erected in 1877, standing on the site of the former Provincial Bank, which was itself the first bank to open in Sligo Town in 1826.

The Provincial Bank became the Allied Irish Bank in the wholesale merger of Irish banks in the early 1970''s.

This fine detached corner-sited three-storey stone building was designed by T. M. Deane.

Leave the Allied Irish Bank, continuing still in an Easterly direction, across the busy two lane junction, where all the traffic should be coming from your left, BE CAREFUL continue straight up The Mall until you reach The Model Arts & Niland Centre.
