Description

This is an 18th century house, or possibly earlier, that was altered around 1800 and in the early 20th century. It includes a courtyard wall and a garage/outhouse. The main part of the house is constructed of coursed flint, partially knapped, with yellow brick dressings and a slate roof. It is two storeys high, with quoins and secondary quoins to the left-hand side, suggesting an additional bay was added. It has a hipped roof with stacks on the left and right sides. The front has three wooden casement windows on the first floor, a bow window to the left and a casement window on the ground floor. A central half-glazed door is sheltered by a flat hood on brackets, within a semi-circular surround. A blocked doorway is present to the left, and there's a wooden casement and sash window on the left return. A projecting wing is visible at the right, with a lean-to roof, a parapet with a stack, a boarded door and sidelight, and a wooden casement window. The rear elevation shows quoins on the end bay, which are not banded together as on the front elevation. There are exposed jambs of a previously blocked cart entry, which led directly into the ground floor. A small opening is visible in the flintwork.

The garden elevation of the additional wing consists of one storey and a basement, with brick quoins to a battlemented parapet, a central arched niche, arched window surrounds with cross windows, and arched basement openings to the left and right. A central half-glazed door is flanked by panelled half-doors in an arched surround.

The interior of the main block is now domestic, featuring a tie beam roof and evidence of framed partitions. The additional wing has complete tongue and groove boarded walls and a barrelled ceiling covered with a moulded picture rail, all likely dating to the early 19th century.

A hipped garage, originally a coach house, is constructed of yellow brick and flint with a slate roof, built atop the courtyard wall. The courtyard wall is made of irregular header and English bond brick, with a flint base, and extends to adjoin the main block.

Historical records suggest the site was previously used as mill buildings from medieval times until the early 19th century. In the late 18th century, the building was converted to domestic use and subsequently served as the lodge for Mount Albion House and estate around 1840. A windmill site is located in the rear garden and was identified as one of the ancient boundary marks of the Ville of Ramsgate. The layout of the buildings is depicted on Collard and Hurst's map of Ramsgate, dated 1822.
