Summary
| Description |
English: Grove House, Harrogate One of the most interesting buildings in the town, but not often noticed as most of it is hidden behind walls at the side of a busy main road. The oldest part dates from 1754 and was used as a small hotel for visitors to the developing spa. In the first half of the 19th century it served as a boarding school and finishing school for young ladies, then in 1850 it was purchased by Mr Samson Fox [ancestor of Edward Fox the actor] who greatly extended the building and also made it the first house in Yorkshire to have gas lighting and central heating. In the 20th century it saw service as an orphanage and convalescent home, which is part of its use today as well as being the HQ of the Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes. |
