The Grove was situated on Cadge Road. This pub has now been demolished with new housing built on the site.
I remember that my stepfather older brother Michael Utting ran this pub for many years. His parents lived on Earlham Grove and his father Arthur Utting would walk up the road for a swift drink regularly. I met him a few times and he was a nice bloke but looked hard as nails. I believe he left the pub in 2009 with mounting overheads and decreasing profits; at a time when people could buy alcohol and drink at home. The landlord Mr Rawlings never did any repairs or secure the empty pub from vandalism damage, and fire. The council took over the land and demolished the pub.
