The Comins-Wall House is a historic house at 42 Hamilton Street in Southbridge, Massachusetts. The 1-1/2 story Greek Revival cottage is estimated to have been built in 1850, probably for a J. Comins, who was listed as its owner in 1855. The cottage, a fairly typical middle class house of the period, is a rare survivor of a fire that swept the area in 1863. It features paneled pilasters at th e corners, a front entry with sidelight windows, and a front porch, probably added in the 1880s, with decorative brackets and a jigsawn balustrade.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
