11 April 2011


Another Little Bit Gets Lost - This is part of the rear wall of The Grange in Ramsgate, the home of Augustus Pugin. Built between 1843 and 1844, I'm sure these worn lumps of sandstone were very decorative in their time, but sitting on top of the cliff overlooking the sea for over 160 years has turned them into strange abstract shapes. I can clearly see a face in this one, looking to the left and slightly away from the camera, maybe wearing a mortar board.
