The original cottage was built in 1876 under the directorship of James Orchard Halliwell a famous Shakespearean Scholar he adopted the surname Phillipps following the death of Sir Thomas Phillipps having inherited the Middle Hill Estate in 1872. The front elevation of the cottage still carries on engraved stone bearing his initials JOP and the date of original construction 1876.
In 2005 the property was sold in need of full repair and the owner at the time undertook an extensive programme to extend and refurbish. The owner at the time sourced matching reclaimed stone for the new external walling and has replicated the stone arch window heads, cills, and sawn stone quoins to window openings. The use of correct architectural detailing combined with high quality materials throughout has led to the creation of a beautifully appointed property which is sympathetic to its setting. In particular there is a most impressive handmade kitchen. The current owner purchased the property in 2010 adding a further extension and carrying further improvements to the property.

The gardens adjoin paddocks to the northern boundary and are largely laid to undulating lawn dotted with mature fruit trees and planted with colourful shrubberies. Within the gardens there is a stone outbuilding which has been refurbished and could be used for a variety of purposes but currently a workshop. The property benefits from off street parking adjacent to the cottage approached through a five bar gate.
