Background Information
We have lived in Mill Hill House for six years. At the time of purchase we were looking for a project - our ambition was to restore a property, and we stumbled upon Mill Hill House, which we have lovingly restored and extended keeping it within the character of a nineteenth century cottage.
Phil, my partner, works as a restoration carpenter in the surrounding area of South Shropshire and Herefordshire. There is a wealth of fine oak timber framed houses and buildings of historical importance, which he counts himself lucky to have the opportunity to work on. His website is as follows.

I produce textile art - mostly landscapes, which are inspired by walking in the beautiful local countryside. Locations which have inspired my work have included Clee Hill, the Long Mynd, (Church Stretton, the gateway to the Long Mynd, is half an hour's drive away), Ludlow - to name but a few. My textile website is as follows.
