Description

Myrtlegrove House is a large house dating from the early 19th century, likely built by the Duke of Norfolk around 1828 when the nearby Michelgrove mansion was demolished. The house has two storeys and nine windows, constructed with a flint facade and white brick dressings, quoins, and a string course. An eaves cornice runs around the top of the building, and the roof is covered with slate and hipped at the corners. The two easternmost window bays are recessed. Later in the 19th century, projecting bays of white brick were added to both floors on either side of the front. A stuccoed porch has been added to the entrance.
