Description
Flint Cottage is an early 19th-century, two-storey octagonal building located on Brighton Road. It features a construction of flint with yellow brick dressings and has a slate roof with a brick chimney stack on the right side. The cottage includes horizontally sliding sash windows and a square brick and glazed porch topped with a tiled roof. Originally, it served as a lodge to a house named Tilgate, which has since been demolished, leaving only the stable wing that is now part of a leisure complex.
