Toll House, Chiddingfold What looks to be an ex-toll house. The brick fabric looks late for a toll house so may well have served the Petworth Turnpike Trust in its dying years. It would have replaced a Toll House SSE on the North side of the ford/bridge at Northbridge.

Hambledon - National Trust cottages The National Trust were left a number (13 I believe) of cottages in and around the village of Hambledon by local generous benefactors. Most of these cottages are now let out by the Trust on long-term leases and cannot be visited by the public - such as the one on the right in this image. However, one cottage "Oakhurst Cottage" can be viewed by prior arrangement (see <span class="nowrap"><a title="https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/oakhurst-cottage" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" href="https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/oakhurst-cottage">Link</a><img style="margin-left:2px;" alt="External link" title="External link - shift click to open in new window" src="https://s1.geograph.org.uk/img/external.png" width="10" height="10"/></span> ) - and this can be seen on the left here - and here <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5783968">SU9637 : Oakhurst Cottage, Hambledon</a>

Oakhurst Cottage, Hambledon Oakhurst Cottage is, according to our helpful guide, the second smallest National Trust property open to the public. The guided tour certainly doesn't take that long as there are just three rooms downstairs and two up.
It is a charming little cottage, thought to date from the C17th, and was lived in with virtually no mod cons until the early 1980s.
