Planning permission has been granted by Thanet District Council under application number F/TH/11/0615 for the “change of use from public house (A4), function rooms and one self contained flat, to a mixed use comprising a restaurant and bar (A3+A4), an art gallery (D1), art studios (B1) and two self contained flats, together with the erection of a third floor roof extension, alterations to doors and fenestration, addition of disabled access, and the insertion of decorative railings to front elevation”. According to Paul Skelton, this was a former public house that was originally called the Island Tavern before being known as the Cottage or as the Old Cottage. He believes this establishment closed in December 2007 http://www.dover-kent.com/Pubs/Cottage-Margate.html
