The present Paradise House is mid 18th century but a house is mentioned here in 1673. Engravings show a rambling Jacobean building pre-dating the present one. In fact, even earlier, the Scarborough House of the Proctor of Citeaux may have been on this site. The plaque celebrates the long nautical associations of the house, which is now flats.
