Henry's Grove is a historic home located at Berlin, Worcester County, Maryland, United States. It was built in 1792, and is a 2+12-story gable-roofed brick house with all walls laid in Flemish bond. The house retains virtually all of its original interior detailing. Also on the property are a 20th-century frame tenant house and four frame outbuildings. It was built for a planter, John Fassitt, whose initials and the date 1792 are inscribed on a plaque in a gable end.[2]

Henry's Grove was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1]
