Description

The Old Cottage and Kingsworthy Antiques is a cottage with an attached shop, dating from the 17th century, with later additions from the late 18th century. The building features a timber frame with plaster infill, which is partly encased, and has been extended using rubble flint and brick. It has an old plain tile roof. The structure consists of three bays, with the right bay encased and an additional bay added in the 18th century.

The entrance features a 20th-century planked oak door set beneath a flat hood, with a two-light camber-headed casement window to the right. At the right end, there is a 20th-century three-light casement. To the left, there is a 19th-century canted hip-roofed bay window with a two-light casement beyond it. Above the three left bays, there are three two-light casements with eyebrow heads, and all windows are leaded. The roof is hipped to the right, with a stack at the end of the ridge and another stack located between the exposed timber bays. The 19th-century shop to the left has a glass and timber front, featuring a central door with a fanlight above, shop windows on each side, and a blind in a box overhead.
