A glimpse of Esplanade Hall from its back yard
Disused and nearly derelict, this appears to be disowned by the chief contenders. An article in the local paper in 2012 reported that the church, having maintained it up to then, had discovered deeds indicating that ownership had been transferred to the local council in 1833. So they would cease maintenance. The council was questioning this. Later reports suggest that the church now thinks they still own it. Evidently the church do not intend to do anything, the condition looks worse now than in 2012. Reportedly built in 1813, it is unlisted.

Foresters, Church Street
Foresters (at present clad in scaffolding), formerly the Foresters Public House, is a grade II listed building dating from the mid to late 16th century http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-366473-forresters-harwich-essex The building bears a plaque erected by the Harwich Society that reads “said to be the oldest house in Harwich (c 1460). The Foresters Arms was an ale house from 1800 to 1941, known locally as the “Old Drum and Monkey”. Seriously damaged by incenderies in World War 2, but restored in 1953 by Winifred Cooper, M.B.E, President of the Harwich Society, it remained her home for nearly 50 years. It is now the headquarters of the Harwich Society”. Of interest is the difference in the age of the building as far as the plaque and the British Listed Buildings website are concerned!
