The museum – one of the island’s most authentic Victorian houses and gardens – is one of nine buildings currently being considered.
Others include the Laxey Wheel, the Leece Museum in Peel and the Calf of Man Bird Observatory.
The Grove is the home of the Gibb family, and in 1976 its contents, gardens and land was bought by Manx National Heritage.
The house, and its Victorian and Edwardian collectibles, secluded walled garden, Loaghtan sheep, and horse-drawn threshing mill offer a rare chance to step into life as it was for three-generations of the same family and their servants.
Chair of Ramsey Commissioners Sandra Cottam-Shea says the town is ‘responsible’ when it comes to protecting its heritage.
‘I’m really pleased because it’s an iconic part of Ramsey and the north and the Isle of Man as a whole,’ she said.
‘it’s going to bring visitors, curiosity and people coming by. It’s a handsome building and it is worth saving and looking after.’
Asked how important it is for certain buildings to be registered, she added: ‘It gives longevity, as well as a sense of history, pride, and a reason to visit the area.
‘I think you’ve got to be practical in the sense that we can’t save everything. However, there are periods such as Victorian, Edwardian, Art Deco, Art Nouveau, that are really worth saving and looking after.
‘We need to leave something for the next two, three, four generations, and there are some buildings that are just iconic in the area. I think we are quite responsible and practical in protecting our heritage.’
