Although only built in the 1970's, the housing stock at Middle Wallop, having long ago fallen into both disrepair and disrepute, has been demolished and rebuilt as a new Hampshire village.

The original site access has been retained but the 'racetrack' road layout has been abandoned in favour of a traditional pattern of streets, lanes and squares. At the heart of the new community are the village green and the main square, whilst behind the main streets, the narrower back lanes and squares each with six to eight houses become small communities in their own right. A small palette of house types interpreted in many different ways creates considerable variety on the street and reflects the Hampshire vernacular with the use of local red stock bricks, flint and tile hanging. The 'grand' houses have high eaves, sash windows and panelled front doors contrasting with the 'cottages' which have low eaves, casement windows and boarded front doors. These house types are juxtaposed to create a genuine village atmosphere.
