Description
Grove House is a late 17th-century farmhouse, now a house, located on the west side of High Street, Deddington. The building is constructed of coursed squared marlstone with limestone-ashlar dressings, and has Welsh-slate and Stonesfield-slate roofs. It is arranged in an L-shape. The front elevation, with five windows, is symmetrical, featuring a central 6-panel door and 2-light leaded windows with square stone mullions and moulded sills, all within simple moulded stone architraves. A moulded rectangular plaque above the door is now illegible. The steep-pitched roof has three gabled dormers with gable parapets, projecting moulded kneelers, and ashlar gable stacks with plinths and moulded caps. The rear of the house includes a central gabled stair projection with leaded casements to both floors and the rear door of a through passage, while other windows have rubble flat arches. A lower service wing returns to the right. Internally, a closed-string winder stair, with slender oak barleytwist balusters, rises to the attics.
