Description
Grove Cottage is a house dating from the 17th century, with alterations made since. The exterior is rendered and whitewashed, with the right gable featuring half-timbering. The roof is of old tiles, and a central chimney is constructed of narrow brick with a pilaster to the front. The house is a single pile lobby entry design, incorporating a gabled stair turret to the center rear, a gabled bay in the angle to the rear of the left bay, and a 20th-century flat-roofed extension in the angle to the rear of the right bay. It has two storeys and two bays. Windows are 3-light leaded casements, the lower one on the right being transomed. The central entrance features a 19th- to 20th-century panelled door, topped with a roof light, flanked by ornamental pilaster panels, and sheltered by a hipped porch supported on wooden posts. Inside, original timber framing is visible in the rear wall. The right bay contains stop-chamfered spine beams and stop-chamfered joists. A fireplace with a partly blocked segmental brick arch is located in the left bay.
