The Groves is a district of York, England, covering the area just north of the city centre between Huntington Road and Haxby Road. The district is near York Hospital and the city ring road. It consists largely of close-knit terraces, the majority of which date from before the First World War. Around 1955, a large number of very small terraced houses were demolished to make way for flats and maisonettes which were built between Garden Street, Penleys Grove/Townend Street and Lowther Street; this area has a residents' association. The Groves area contains a mixture of privately owned and rented properties, and council housing, and contains a number of students from York St John University. Lowther Street is the main area for local shopping, with an Indian restaurant and takeaway, Chinese takeaway, a small supermarket and a shop specialising in Polish food. In Penleys Grove Street there is a grocery shop. Lowther Street is a busy route for traffic during rush hours, although a one-way system reduces traffic on this and Penleys Grove/Townend Street. The Groves includes Park Grove Primary School, the Young Groves centre, Door 84, and St Thomas' Church. There is a police team which works with the community. The area crime rate is one of the lowest in York. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Groves」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
