8, Foord Road South
Home to Folkestone Triennial 2021 to display a sculptural installation by the artists HayCheong, Simon Davenport and Shahed Saleem Nūr.
A notice affixed to the brick gatepost in Image shows a better view of the derelict building; it reads: The building in front of you, now occupied by the Islamic Cultural Centre, was two storeys taller until the 1940s. For a couple of centuries before that, it was one of the most important industrial buildings in Folkestone, incorporating a huge water wheel to drive its mill. The artists have worked with the Centre’s organising committee to present proposals for how the building might be developed to better serve the needs of the community in the future. The designs for the artwork were evolved through workshops with the Madrasa and the wider Islamic community.
