The Romsey Estates were part of the Fleming Estate in Hampshire. In 1819, the Romsey Estates comprised 1,883 acres of land.

The two manors of Romsey Extra and Romsey Infra were inherited by Katherine, wife of Edward Fleming (1606-1664), from her brother Edward Hooper. (A probable kinsman, Sir Francis Fleming[1], had purchased the Broadlands Estate in 1547.) The Romsey Estates were sold at auction in 1911 and 1912; The manorial lordships of Romsey Infra and Romsey Extra were sold to the Broadlands Estate in 1991.
