Medina Cottage was a large residence with an equally large garden next to the Royal Osborne Brewery on the south side of Sherborne Road, about halfway between Wyndham Street and the new one-way junction with Reckleford.
In the 1871 census it was occupied by retired chemist Thomas Manning, his wife Sarah and a general domestic servant.
Medina Cottage
ultimately
(after 1881)
became part of
the adjoining
Duke of
Wellington
public house and
was demolished
in 1992.
The site is now
the car park in
front of
Majestic Wine.
