Romsey House, Mill Road


11 June 1909
Romsey House, Mill Road, with its large gardens and shrubberies, was the residence of the late W. E. Curry and had been built for the late J. W. Prior to the designs of G. H. Shackle of Marlborough. Constructed in red brick in the Tudor style, it contained several exceptionally large rooms. The property, together with its fixtures, was purchased by the Romsey Town Institute Committee for £1,435, providing the Institute with a substantial permanent home. Credit: Mike Petty Archive.
