Description
This is an early 19th-century building, originally comprising two properties, located at 16 and 18 Albion Street in Broadstairs. The rear elevation is pebble-dashed, while the front features a stone coping. The upper floors have three triple sash windows each. The first floor has an altered balcony, and the ground floor incorporates a projecting extension with four triple sash windows.
The Albion Street elevation is constructed of stock brick and features a doorcase on the left side, including a rectangular fanlight above a six-panelled door. Two of the door's central panels have been cut away and glazed, and there is a later 19th-century shop front. A shop front appears on the left side. The building formally housed the Marine Lending Library, which ceased operation in 1864.
