About

Heworth South & The Groves is a residential district just northeast of York's city centre. The area is primarily known for its late Victorian and Edwardian terraced houses, many featuring distinctive bay windows and red brick. Quiet, tree-lined streets characterise the neighbourhood, which sits between the River Foss and the main road leading out towards the village of Heworth.

The Groves, along the river, is named for the avenues of trees planted in the 19th century. A pedestrian riverside path here is a local route for walking, with several footbridges crossing the Foss. The area is also home to the York Cemetery, a Victorian garden cemetery established in the 1830s that is now a designated nature reserve and conservation area.
