Condition: Upcott. Hand-coloured steel engraving mounted in conservation materials suitable for framing, overall size 11 x 10 inches approx. Engraved surface, including margin, 7 x 5.75 inches. A view of the original Sandgate Castle, little changed from the time of Henry VIII, shortly before the interior was converted into a Martello tower, to match those under construction in its neighbourhood from 1805 onwards. There are two foreground figures looking out to sea where a small naval vessel flies the blue ensign. It is interesting that the Castle still flies the old union flag without the additional red stripe that signified the union of Britain and Ireland, which came into existence on 1st January, the first day of the new century, and the publication date of this print. It appears in book form in A Journey from London to the Isle of Wight, Vol. II, From Dover to the Isle of Wight, by Thomas Pennant (1801). KENT VIEWS KENT.

Original satirical cartoon in pen and ink with watercolour wash, a single leaf 7.5 x 4.5 inches, sometime mounted onto card and framed, Overall size 13.5 x 11 inches. In very good condition. An artillery man, possibly in the uniform of the Royal Artillery or of a Cinque Ports detachment (faded blue uniform with red facings) is shown setting off a canon,which has fired a chain shot at a caricature French soldier. Along the barrel of the cannon is the signature, H Thompson - Sandgate July 30 1833. The artillery man exclaims; ' Go where glory waits thee!.' The Frenchman makes a somewhat longer speech as he flies through the air with his limbs severed and cockaded hat flying off [English translation]: 'Zounds! Ah this English villain has without doubt killed me! Never again will I see my dear wife and my eighteen children! Oh my beautiful France! Oh my native land! My sons will certainly avenge me. Only GLORY is left to me!!! This scene is almost certainly set at the coastal defence battery of Sandgate Castle. The castle built by Henry VIII, had been converted into a martello style tower during the Napoleonic wars. Rutton (1895) refers to William Daniell's description of the Castle in 1822 while he was preparing his Voyage around Great Britain. He 'found but two guns mounted, and for garrison but four or five worn-out artillery-men! Even this remnant of a garrison soon afterwards faded away, and the Castle, seems to have been left in charge of a single 'keeper'.' It was part of Royal Artillery policy to use so-called 'invalid' companies to man coastal batteries, sometimes under the charge of a master gunner. In an 1824 list of Sandgate is simply recorded as being part of the Cinque Ports Detachment linked with Dover, Deal and Walmer. This 1833 caricature obviously reflects this period of post war decay with perhaps a veteran of the French wars reflecting on his own glory days to while away the boredom of garrison duty. For a period of one hundred years the British coast defence artillery never fired a shot in anger, although Sandgate was rearmed after 1859 when French invasion was once more perceived as a threat. The guns were removed again in 1881 when the Castle was sold to the South Eastern Railway for a projected coastal route.

Hand-coloured lithograph, 14 x 11 inches overall, depicting the chapel viewed from the northwest with sheep grazing in the foreground. Incidental to the subject, in the background we can see the Martello tower standing at the end of the Leas on the left, and a coach and horses ascending Military Hill on the right. The lithograph is in very good condition, apart from an inch and a half old closed tear in the lower margin and some slight loss of surface near, and slightly effecting, a few letters in the titles. Mounted in conservation materials. Rare, lithograph view of the Episcopal Chapel at Sandgate, built in the Palladian style, with cupola on top. The Earl of Darnley built the 'Episcopal Chapel' on a plot of land from his adjoining estate and this was consecrated on May 8, 1822. Sandgate was developing rapidly at that time, and when the railway reached Folkestone in 1843, a much larger church was needed. The earlier building was demolished in 1848, and a new, larger church, St. Paul's was completed the following year. Thomas Purday was established as a Bookseller and owner of the circulating Library in Sandgate as early as 1816, he published a Sandgate, Folkestone and Hythe Guide in the 1840s and passed on the business to Sarah and Mary Ann Purday, who reissued the guide with their own imprint about 1846. It would seem the view of the Church was issued as a consequence of its imminent destruction, making way for the larger replacement. We have only seen one example of this rare view before, over 20 years ago. KENT SANDGATE KENT.
