The First National Bank Building in Stratford, Oklahoma, at 100 West Main, was built in 1907. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001. [1]

It is a two-story brick building with a patterned metal hipped roof, with two gabled dormers and six brick chimneys and two "small metal towerets and an ornamented ridge cap", as well as a two-story turret. It is described as Late Victorian in style, combining elements of Romanesque Revival and Queen Anne styles, which it terms as sub-styles of Victorian. Queen Anne characteristics include the irregular massing and some details; Romanesque Revival elements include the rounded stonework arch above the building's corner entrance. [2]

The building "is unique among the commercial buildings of downtown Stratford. The majority of other buildings in the central business district are relatively plain, one-story, brick, Commercial style resources." [2]

Victorian architecture Series of architectural revival styles

Victorian architecture is a series of architectural revival styles in the mid-to-late 19th century. Victorian refers to the reign of Queen Victoria (1837–1901), called the Victorian era, during which period the styles known as Victorian were used in construction. However, many elements of what is typically termed "Victorian" architecture did not become popular until later in Victoria's reign, roughly from 1850 and later. The styles often included interpretations and eclectic revivals of historic styles. The name represents the British and French custom of naming architectural styles for a reigning monarch. Within this naming and classification scheme, it followed Georgian architecture and later Regency architecture, and was succeeded by Edwardian architecture.
