Description
The Grove is a house built in the early 19th century, constructed of white brick with a slate roof. It has two storeys and features a hipped, shallow-pitched roof with a wide eaves overhang. The building has four internal chimney-stacks, each with high narrow rectangular shafts topped by chimney-posts.
On the upper floor, there are three long narrow small-paned sash windows set in deep reveals with flat gauged arches. The ground floor windows have larger individual panes and extend down to ground level. A Roman Doric tetrastyle portico adorns the entrance, which has a six-panelled door with two leaves.
At the south (garden) front, there is a semi-circular two-storey bay topped with a domed lead-covered roof, featuring three windows on each storey. The upper storey windows are 12-pane sashes, while the lower storey windows have deeper panes, similar to those on the front of the house.
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 88% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 95% of listed buildings.
It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 54% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 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.
