Middle Cottage Thatched Cottage

Middle Cottage is a semi-detached thatched cottage located on Romsey Road in Kings Somborne. This building, which was originally one structure, dates back to the 16th century and was enlarged in the 18th and 20th centuries. It features a timber frame with brick and plaster infill, along with rendered additions, and has a thatched roof.

The original 16th-century building consists of three bays, with an 18th-century bay added to the left and a late 20th-century outshot added to the front. The cottage is one and a half storeys high. The left bay has a 20th-century planked door set beneath a large gabled hood, while the right bay has a planked door within a pent-roofed porch. The 16th-century bays contain two-light casements, and the 18th-century bay features a three-light casement with shutters. Above the 18th-century bay, there is a two-light leaded casement. The two 16th-century bays are topped with two-light casements set in eyebrow dormers. The roof is half-hipped, with the right hip extending into the adjacent September Cottage. A stack is positioned above the right door, over the left 16th-century bay, and at the end of the 18th-century bay.
