Grove House, Roehampton, Grade II* listed Georgian mansion in Roehampton, England

Grove House stands on Roehampton Lane with classical architectural elements, including stone balustrades, three arches, and ornate Coade-stone decorative urns near the lake.

James Wyatt designed Grove House in 1777 for Sir Joshua Vanneck on the former site of Roehampton Great House, the second largest residence in Surrey.

The estate features a Romanesque mausoleum built in 1864, where Parisian ballet dancer Yolande Duvernay and her husband Stephens Lyne rest.

The mansion serves as part of Froebel College at the University of Roehampton, providing educational spaces and hosting various academic functions throughout the year.

The grounds contain a man-made grotto constructed between 1895 and 1912, complete with pathways, caverns, and waterfalls, alongside an 18th-century icehouse.
