Description
The Lodge to Greenbank is a lodge cottage that spans the carriage drive, built around 1930, likely designed by Sir Charles Reilly for Peter Jones, the owner of the Wolverhampton Corrugated Iron Company's works at Ellesmere Port. The building features lined render and a shallow-pitched grey slate roof. It is two stories tall and symmetrical in design.
The lodge has a basket-arched carriage entrance with double gates made of four fielded panels, with the top rail sweeping down towards the center. It includes a simple plinth, panelled pilasters, and an arch at the carriage entrance. Each return of the entrance has a door with four fielded panels and a margin-paned overlight. There are recessed sashes in slightly projecting wings on either side of the archway, each with eight central panes and ten margin panes. A first-floor sill band features a running motif of S-shaped scrolls, and there are two first-floor sash windows above the archway and one on each wing, similar to those on the ground floor. The gable has a broken pediment with boarded soffits, and there are simple one-storey outer wings with blank sides. The detail at the rear of the lodge mirrors that of the front, and a stone wall to the left of the lodge extends forward to the road. The interior has not been inspected.
