Description

Greenbank is an early 19th-century house located on Shropshire Street in Audlem. The building is constructed of rendered and painted brick, topped with a slate roof and lead flashings. It stands two storeys tall with a symmetrical entrance front featuring three bays. The central bay is bowed and has a verandah supported by wooden columns, which rests on a pavement made of large stone flags and has a lean-to roof.

The entrance features a central doorway with 20th-century double four-glazed doors. Flanking the doorway are 20th-century French windows that sit on the plinth where sash windows would have originally been. The first floor has three 2-light 20th-century casement windows. Above, there is a slightly projecting band and deep eaves. The roof is hipped and covered with large slates.

On the left side of the house, there is a chimney stack with five flues, while the right side features a mid to late 19th-century canted bay window on the ground floor, which has a hipped roof and a 2-light casement window above it. This side also has a projecting service wing made of painted brick.
