Former Granville Hotel, Ramsgate

Former Granville Hotel, Ramsgate

Working in collaboration with del Renzio & del Renzio and the consultant team, the practice was appointed by Heritage Lab CIC as Historic Building Consultant to undertake a condition survey and design advisory role. Proposals include new uses as artists residences, community use and live work start up business hub. The original building, by Edward Pugin dates from 1867 and is listed Grade II has had a series of modifications over time. It has been vacant and deteriorating since 1991 and lies within the Ramsgate Conservation Area which is designated by Historic England as a Heritage Action Zone. The initial survey of the significant fabric assessed the conservation deficit of the ballroom and public function rooms of the former Granville Hotel in Ramsgate. The report has been included in a successful funding application to the Architectural History Fund.
