Description
The Grosvenor Arms, with a rear stable block, is an inn dating from the late 18th century. It is constructed of rendered brick with chamfered rusticated quoins and features a hipped tile roof with brick stacks. The building is L-shaped and two stories high, with three windows across the front. To the left of center, there is a six-panelled door with a flat wooden hood supported by brackets. To the right, there is a 19th-century panelled door with a transom light, flanked by a pair of 12-pane sash windows, while to the left, there is another pair of 8-pane sashes. The first floor has a 12-pane sash window in the center, with pairs of 12-pane sashes on either side.
At the rear, there is a 19th-century canted bay window to the right and a two-story wing to the left, which contains three-light casements and a hipped roof. Attached to the rear is a long two-story range of stables made of dressed limestone, featuring a pantiled roof, six planked doors, fixed windows, and 20th-century garage doors. The dressed limestone garden wall that is attached has square gate piers topped with ball finials.
Inside, the building has stairs with two turned balusters per tread, an open fireplace with a brick segmental arch, and bread ovens. The inn was known as The Angel until the mid-19th century when it was renamed the Grosvenor Arms after Lord Grosvenor, who later became the Marquess of Westminster, acquired the Fonthill Abbey estate and property in Hindon between around 1825 and 1840.
