The Richard Strong Cottage is a historic house at 35 Gowing Lane in Dublin, New Hampshire. This 1-1/2 story wood frame Cape style house was probably built c. 1767 by Silas Strong, one of Dublin's first settlers. It was reconstructed near its current site c. 1805 by Captain Richard Strong, whose house stands nearby. It was moved a few hundred feet east, to its present location, in 1980. The house is a well-preserved example of a vernacular farmstead.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
