Brief History of Abbey House Shrewsbury:

Abbey House is a large Queen Anne House whose date of construction is unknown, but is thought to have been built either about 1698 or, more likely, about 1720.

Thomas Jenkins who later became Sheriff of Shropshire in 1729 probably built it on the site of a smaller house. The land was possibly part of Thomas Jenkins' marriage settlement since his wife, Gertrude Wingfield, came from a well-connected family of local landowners. They also had eight children, so needed a large house.

Facing Shrewsbury Abbey, the house is an imposing brick building whose hall and reception rooms are completely panelled in oak. The fine staircase has a wide landing reputedly to turn sedan chairs on.
