Description
Grove House is a large house built in the late 18th century, with extensions added in the early 19th century and later. It is noted to have been constructed for Edward Bee. The building features rendered limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and a Welsh-slate roof with rendered gable stacks. It has an L-plan layout and is designed in a late Georgian style, standing two storeys tall. The front has eight windows, a storey band, a cornice, and a plain parapet. The entrance is located to the right of the centre and includes a fanlight and a stone canopy supported by simplified classical columns. The ground floor has full-length 12-pane sash windows, with a slightly narrower window above the door. The roof, which has gable parapets, rises above the original six-bay front on the right. The two bays on the left were added in the early 20th century. The rear wing, to the left of the original front, was further extended around 1830, with the angle infilled. The unrendered rubble walls at the rear feature additional sashes arranged irregularly. Inside, there is an early 19th-century staircase with a wreathed mahogany handrail.
