Pierremont Hall
Pierremont Hall, Pierremont Avenue, Broadstairs, Kent, CT10 1JX
Discover some of the secrets of this Grade II listed building, located in the heart of Broadstairs. This newly renovated building is a beacon of history, showcasing the town’s historical character. The Hall was built in 1785 for Thomas Forsyth and designed by Samuel Pepys Cockerell. The Duchess of Kent and a young Princess Victoria holidayed at Pierremont from 1826 to 1836. It had various owners until its sale in 1896 to Leonard Posnett, who used it as a school. Most of the original 30 acres of land were developed as housing and the building and remaining park were sold to the Urban District Council in 1927.
