Description

Grove House is a house dating from the late 17th century, which was refronted and extended around 1800, with later alterations. It is constructed of rubble with brick and stone dressings, and has rendered sides and rear. The roof is covered with double Roman tiles and features gable stacks on the south and east sides, with raised coped verges that continue into a parapet. The house is designed in a classical style and has a south front that is 2½ storeys high, incorporating the gable end of the original structure.

The front has a total of six windows, with a sash window at both the ground and first floors in exposed boxes featuring segmental heads. There is a blocked cellar window and a small two-light casement in the attic. The remaining windows are sashes with flat splayed brick heads and surrounds, except for a 20th-century pivoted sash window on the ground floor, second from the right, and a 20th-century door in the second bay from the left, which has an ashlar surround and a cornice supported by fluted brackets.

The west elevation has three windows, with 16-pane sashes on the ground floor and sashes on the first floor, all featuring exposed boxes and segmental heads. There is a blocked door to the right and three cellar windows with segmental heads, the central one being blocked, while the left and right windows have diamond mullions and elaborate wrought iron catches. The east elevation has two sashes on the ground and first floors to the left, a casement with diamond stanchions on the ground floor to the left, and a 19th-century sash with four panes on the first floor to the right.

The rear of the house features a large bow that extends through two storeys, flanked by pilasters, with a cornice and parapet. It has three windows, all large sashes on the first floor, and nine-pane sashes on the lower ground floor. There is a porch to the right supported by slender Doric columns, which includes a cornice and parapet, and features a panelled and glass door. The interior has not been inspected.
