| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse centres on an intaglio-engraved pastoral vignette of a farmer guiding a horse-drawn plough, with two draught horses occupying the left portion of the composition and the denomination £5 rendered in large script at centre. Bilingual legends in English and Irish Gaelic run along the upper border, identifying the note as a Currency Commission Consolidated Bank Note, while the issuing bank name THE NORTHERN BANK LIMITED appears in a panel at lower centre, flanked by the serial prefix and date. The overall layout follows the standard Currency Commission Consolidated Note format common to all participating banks of the period. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is dominated by a finely engraved vignette of St. Patrick's Bridge, Cork, rendered horizontally with the multi-arched stone bridge spanning the River Lee and the city's buildings and church spires receding behind it. The central scene is enclosed within an ornate guilloche border of scrollwork and lace-pattern underprint, with the denomination £5 in large numerals at both left and right within the decorative frame. The composition is characteristic of the Currency Commission series reverse design shared across the consolidated note issues. |

The Currency Commission was established by the Irish Free State in 1927 to manage a consolidated currency system in which the commercial banks — including Northern Bank — retained the right to issue their own notes, but only under strict Commission oversight and backed by sterling assets held in London. This arrangement made the Irish pound a de facto sterling equivalent, and these notes circulated alongside British currency without meaningful distinction in daily trade.
The Knox-to-Stewart signature transition reflects the death of Joseph Brennan's co-signatory mid-series — not a change in policy, simply an administrative succession within the Commission's secretariat.
