Ranger launched his career as the designer of sophisticated, upmarket neo-Tudor houses with a series of homes in Broadstairs, the town where he lived for ten years from the mid-1920s.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Modern\u2019 neo-Tudor houses such as Ranger\u2019s are under appreciated and very few are protected by listing. One of Ranger\u2019s finest, Edgecliff on the North Foreland Estate, which was published internationally, was demolished only recently by a developer who then failed to build on the site. Ranger was also the co-architect of Thanet Place, a large Italianate country house on the edge of Broadstairs built for the meat tycoon Lord Vestey.<\/p>\n<p>This number of the Journal is devoted to the work of twentieth-century British architects who designed one-off private houses outside London.
