The Eagle Inn

The Eagle Inn is a public house dating from the 18th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century. It features a rendered exterior on flint and has a plain tiled roof. The building is two storeys high with an attic and a basement, set on a flint plinth. The roof is half-hipped with a parapet and includes three flat-roofed dormers, along with chimney stacks located at the rear left and rear right.

The front has a regular arrangement of windows, with five sash windows on the first floor and four on the ground floor, all featuring canopies. There is a basement opening on the left side. The entrance is marked by central double glazed doors within a large projecting Doric porch that has a heavy cornice and rails, topped with a decorative eagle, and is accessed by three steps leading to the pavement. A large wrought iron sign bracket is centrally positioned.

On the left side, there are weatherboarded rear ranges with a canted bay on the ground floor, featuring half-glazed doors in the canted corner sections. The name of the inn is said to come from an eagle that was shot in flight over Ramsgate, a story that predates 1809.
