The property was converted into the house it is today by the Baker family who built and owned Baker's Mill behind the house in the late 19th century, hence the name 'The Mill House'

In recent years the house has undergone an extensive modernisation and refurbishment programme. Period features have been sympathetically retained along side providing state of the art 21st century living.
