Description

The Grove is an early 19th-century stone house with a stuccoed front elevation, located on the north side of Church Hill in Castor. It features a low-pitched Collyweston stone roof and has a moulded cornice along with a blocking course that includes a simple pedimented centre piece adorned with volutes and corner dies. A band runs at the first-floor level. The house is two storeys high and has three windows. The first-floor windows are flanked by round-headed niches, with the centre window being longer and having a moulded cornice supported on consoles. The other first-floor windows also feature cornices. The ground floor windows are full-length with plain heads and are casements. At the centre of the front is a plain four-panel door.

Local climate

The Grove sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 89% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 88% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
