Description
Grove House is a house built in 1735 and extended in 1919. It features a timber frame and weatherboarded exterior with a plain tiled roof. The original 18th-century house was expanded to the south with a large wing made of red and blue brick in 1919. The building has two storeys and doubled stacks on the right side. There are three glazing bar sash windows on each floor of the weatherboarded section. On the right side of the 20th-century wing, there is a two-storey canted bay window and a door with six raised and fielded panels, topped by a semi-circular fanlight and open pediment. The right return has two storeys with quoins, a moulded modillion eaves cornice, and a hipped roof that includes two hipped dormers. The regular window arrangement consists of two glazing bar sashes on each floor, flanking a central two-storey bow window. At the rear, the 18th-century wing features three gables, with fine moulded tripartite glazing bar sashes inserted.
