| 説明 | Royal Victoria Pavilion, Ramsgate, 5 September 2020. Built in 1903-4 as a theatre/concert hall/assembly rooms/cafe. It was designed by Stanley Davenport Adshead in the style of a Robert Adam French Classical Revival Orangery with the interior based on the Queen's Theatre in Versailles (yes, really). Adshead drew up the plans in a week and won Ramsgate Corporations competition to build it, his first major architectural work. A good example of Edwardian seaside architecture. It became a casino in 1970 which closed in 2008 and it fell into a very dilapidated state. However, in 2017-18 it was restored by Wetherspoons and became the largest 'spoons pub in the world! Although it has to be said that Wetherspoons only have pubs in the UK and Ireland. Nonetheless, it also has to be said that Wetherspoons has done a truly excellent job of restoration and having a 'full English' breakfast on the veranda on a sunny English Summer's morning was a delight. Pictured is the frontage. |
