Pugin (died 1852), the great Gothic Revival architect and designer, visited Ramsgate several times during his short and hectic life.ย He finally settled at The Grange, the house he created for his family in 1844.ย In Pugin and Ramsgate, Rosemary Hill gives a vivid account of Pugin's relationship with the town, the building of The Grange and his local friendships, at the same time giving a lively picture of a growing coastal resort that the great architect knew in the early decades of the 19th century.
