History

Large late Georgian town house, substantially reconstructed or restored c. 2000, most features now replica, interior subdivided as flats. The original iron railings listed in 1974 have been replaced. Marked on 1888 OS as The Grove, occupied in 1926 by Major J.H. Sandham Griffith.
The Grove is recorded as to let in 1809, when it had gardens with hot-houses. In 1839 it was offered for auction with garden and summer-house, plus Grove House Garden and other adjacent sites for building in Grove House field with more sites in Shut Street. The Grove Houses were said to be of recent construction with all the most comfortable arrangements of modern mansions and with the best materials, each with a stable and coach house. In 1842 a house in grove Row was offered for sale as built within the last five years.
