Summary

[edit]
Description
English: North Cottage, Sea Lane The oldest buildings in Kingston Gorse, there are two cottages here, North Cottage is the first whilst the second partially obscured one is Lighthouse Cottage. The latter gives a clue to their origins built to house the workers of the local beach signal station that were built sometime between 1783-1813 (They are marked on the 1st OS Map of 1813 but not on Yeakell & Gardner's map of 1783). The rest of the hamlet was constructed between the wars when large swathes of the Sussex coastline was developed. In this instance the hamlet is a private estate though Sea Lane remains a public footpath from East Kingston to the beach.
