Description

The Grove is a farmhouse dating from the late 18th century or early 19th century, with its main elevation facing the rear. The building is two storeys high and features three windows. It is constructed of red brick and has flat pilasters at the corners and on either side of the entrance door. The roof is hipped and covered with slate. The windows are small-pane sash style with flat arches above them. The entrance door has six panels and is recessed between the flat pilasters that once supported a pediment; it also features a semi-circular fanlight with radial glazing bars. Originally, the house was L-shaped, but a 20th-century extension now gives it a square plan.

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 85% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 82% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 57% of listed buildings. Of these, 18 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.
