Listed Building record MDO19113 - Antelope Hotel, Cornhill, Dorchester

The Antelope Hotel, on the west side of Cornhill, is of two and three storeys with walls of coursed stone, brick and some stucco and is built round four sides of a courtyard with a carriageway through from east to west. The south and west ranges comprise an L-shaped coaching inn of the late 16th or early 17th century but the south range has been much altered and heightened subsequently. The other two ranges are mainly of the early 19th century. The street front is divided into three bays by stone pilasters and also dates from the 19th century. The east to west carriageway is now known as Antelope Walk and houses a series of specialist shops which have been converted from the hotels outbuildings.
