The flat-spectrum 1-arcsec double radio source 1830-211 has anomalous spectral and structural properties that do not admit inclusion in any of the known subdivisions of conventional Galactic and extragalactic radio sources. We have observed the H I emission and absorption spectra due to Galactic neutral hydrogen towards the source. A comparison suggests that 1830-211 is extragalactic, consistent with the hypothesis that the source is an example of the gravitational lensing phenomenon. An unusual warm H I component with a spin temperature of about 1000 K has been detected towards the source. This H I fragment is either a peculiar-velocity cloud or else is located beyond the solar circle and about 2 kpc off the Galactic plane.
