Milton Abbas houses [29]
St James' Cottage, numbers 46 and 47 The Street, was originally a pair of cottages, now combined into one. Built circa 1780 with plastered cob walls and a hipped thatched roof. There is a rear wing of similar construction. Listed, grade II, with details at: https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1152289
Milton Abbas is a small village in a wooded valley some 5 miles south west of Blandford Forum. This planned community was constructed circa 1780 when the inhabitants of the market town of Middleton were relocated here by the landowner, the Earl of Dorchester. Middleton was then demolished and the site landscaped. Recently the village has been extended above the eastern end of the valley. Every two years a historic country fair takes place here when the locals celebrate the rebuilding of their village.
