Description

Grosvenor House is an early 19th-century building located on the west side of East Street in Herne Bay. It has two storeys, an attic, and a semi-basement, all finished in stucco. The roof is mansarded and covered with slate, featuring two dormer windows and a cornice with brackets at the eaves. The building has two curved windows on the ground and first floors, which retain their original glazing bars. The entrance is marked by a recessed doorcase. Grosvenor House forms part of a group with No. 4 East Street.

Local climate

Grosvenor House sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 700 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 90% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 52% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 14 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 87% of listed buildings. Of these, 7 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.
