A tranquil scene, between the boats, at night on The River Stour at Grove Ferry. Pleiades (Seven Sisters) can be clearly seen.

The Grove Ferry Public House took its name from a hand drawn ferry that crossed the River Stour in front of the building. The pub was also known as Grove Ferry Inn. A road bridge replaced the old ferry in 1963.

Grove Ferry Boat Club was founded in 1964. The clubhouse, dating from the early seventies, is on the south bank of the river, just below the Grove Ferry Bridge

Kent County Council renovated the bridge in September 2000.
