History Of London House
London House is probably one of the Kent coast's best kept secrets. It is not only historically important but also arguably one of the most architecturally outstanding properties overlooking the Channel. This unique and imposing clifftop property, with uninterrupted panoramic views across the sea as far as the Belgian coast and round to Hastings, is steeped in history. It is believed to have been designed and constructed by a German spy to record naval shipping in the Channel at the start of World War I and was subsequently requisitioned by the RAF during World War II where it housed numerous personnel supporting the war effort. Indeed, even as late as 2000 there was an annual London House reunion for those who lived and manned the facility during the Second World War, hosted at the house. The property was built in 1913/14 using sandstone and marble and was one of the very first domestic properties in the Kent to employ concrete and has retained its many period features including marble pillars, carved supporting cornices and a spiral staircase.
