Stables And Cottage To Rear Of Grove House

The stables and cottage located at the rear of Grove House were built in the early to mid 18th century and extended in the late 18th to early 19th century. The structure is made of coursed squared limestone rubble with ashlar dressings, topped with plain-tile and slate roofs. It is a single-range building with one storey plus a loft.

The taller central block features a central stable door, two sash windows on the left, and one on the right, all with stone flat arches. There is an additional door on the far left and a double carriage entrance on the far right, both under wooden lintels. Three loft doors are located under the eaves, with one now blocked. The gables are adorned with stone parapets.

The lower flanking blocks have shallow-hipped slate roofs. On the left, there is a central door flanked by wide windows, while the right side contains the cottage, which has three 2-light casements; the central window was formerly a door. The right wing extends to the rear, featuring 3-light casements and a door at a lower level, along with a further range at the back.

Inside, there are late 18th to early 19th century loose boxes, though the interior of the cottage has not been inspected. The central block is likely a converted and re-fronted barn.
