Myrtle Cottage the Village | Hartlebury | Worcestershire | DY11 7TE MYRTLE COTTAGE Myrtle Cottage The Village | Hartlebury | Worcestershire | DY11 7TE MYRTLE COTTAGE Sitting within the ancient settlement of Hartlebury, Myrtle Cottage is an imposing double fronted period residence that has undergone extensive modernisation and been extended to create a lovely home suited to a growing family. Set within 1.2 acres, the property has the additional benefit of a detached annexe, incorporating a double garage, as well as a large parking area, well stocked gardens, kitchen garden, woodland and Shepherd’s Hut. The accommodation to the ground floor is currently configured with four reception rooms, conservatory, utility, cloakroom and kitchen with access to a cellar. The first floor comprises of five bedrooms, one of which is currently split into two offices, a family bathroom, separate WC, and an en-suite to the main bedroom. There are far reaching views to the West from the house and gardens.

We would often walk past the cottage and think that it had a lovely feeling about it and that it would be perfect for a family, so we jumped at the opportunity to buy it when it became available,” recall the current owners. “Located in the centre of the village, we can step out of the front door and walk for miles across the fields. We’re keen cyclists too and it’s quick and easy to get onto the smaller lanes away from the main roads. There’s a good village atmosphere here, as well as a shop and a nice gastro pub just at the end of the road. Our boys could hop on the train to go to school which was great as we knew they were safe, and it gave them their independence. We appreciate the benefits of living in the countryside, yet we’re close to the outskirts of the city of Birmingham which has really suited us.” “We’ve lived here for 23 years and the garden was just fields when we moved in. We’ve enjoyed planting trees and designing different areas, including the informal space where we have our vegetable patch and fruit cages. It’s full of butterflies and we often see egrets and red kites soaring overhead. Our boys always had friends camping in the Shepherd’s Hut in the garden and the block paved driveway has been the scene of many social events, including celebrating the Royal Weddings and the opening of the London Olympics. We’ve enjoyed BBQs in the garden along with 50 guests and the conservatory has plenty of space should the weather take a turn for the worse.” “My husband enjoys spending time in his studio and workshop above the garage, whilst I can often be found in the conservatory as it’s lovely and light and has wonderful views over the garden. I’ve always appreciated being able to easily access the road and rail links for work purposes and the location really is as good as it gets. Myrtle Cottage is a great family home in a fabulous location and our lads have been lucky enough to experience an idyllic upbringing here. We’ll be very sorry to leave but we’re moving to be closer to our family and we’ll certainly be replicating the informal garden as it’s brought us much joy,” conclude the current owners.* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.

Double Garage HARTLEBURY Myrtle Cottage is located within the centre of the ancient village and Parish of Hartlebury. This thriving community provides for local amenities including public house, garage, shop and primary schooling. The village is identified within The Doomsday Book compiled in 1086 and is recognised for Hartlebury Castle, a Grade I Listed building that was the residence of The Bishop of Worcester until 2007, which is only a short walk away. For more local shopping and daily requirements, the village is within easy reach of Stourport-on-Severn (2.3 miles), Kidderminster (5 miles) and Droitwich Spa (8 miles). The County Town and Cathedral City of Worcester (10 miles), lying on the banks of The River Severn, provides for high street and boutique shopping, and is characterised by one of England’s great Cathedrals, magnificent Guildhall, Racecourse, County Cricket Ground, Premiership Rugby Club, and University. The City was the site of the final battle of the English Civil War. Birmingham (21 miles to its centre) is a city of International importance, both commercially and culturally, as defined by its magnificent Library, Town Hall and Symphony Hall; the home of The Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. Hartlebury benefits from a railway station with further access to the network available at Kidderminster, adjacent to The Severn Valley Railway Station, and Droitwich Spa. The new Worcestershire Parkway Railway station (15 miles), situated close to Junction 7 of the M5, now offers increased capacity and reduced journey times to the capital. The M5 motorway (accessed via Junction 6 (11 miles) at Worcester or Junction 3 (14 miles) at Halesowen) provides for ready access to the North and South West, Greater Birmingham and the surrounding industrial and commercial areas as well as Cheltenham and its Racecourse (36 miles), Gloucester (39 miles) and Bristol (73 miles). The M42, accessed via the M5 North of Bromsgrove, also offers access to Birmingham International Airport (31 miles) and the North East. Road travel to London (127 miles) is best via the M5/M42/M40. London Heathrow Airport is 120 miles. If education is a priority then Worcestershire is blessed with an enviable mix of schooling at all levels, including a variety of independent establishments, allowing parents to select the right environment for their children’s needs. These include The Kings Schools and Royal Grammar School at Worcester itself, Bromsgrove School (10 miles), Malvern College (19 miles), Winterfold House School at Chaddesley Corbett (3.5 miles), Heathfield at Wolverley (6.5) and Abberley Hall School (8.5 miles). For days out and recreation, Myrtle Cottage is well placed for ready access to the North Cotswolds and Broadway (31 miles) as well as Stratford-upon-Avon (29 miles), Great Malvern (18 miles) and The Malvern Hills, and Ludlow (24). The West coast of Wales, at Aberdovey is 96 miles.

It was first collected in 1693 and continued to be collected until 1963. Before 1780 Land Tax Assessments are rare but from then until 1832 duplicates of the Land Assessments had to be lodged with the Clerk of the Peace and are to be found in County Quarter Sessions records. In 1798 the tax was fixed at 4 shillings in the pound and this was made as a permanent charge on the land. The landowners were given the choice of paying 15 years of tax in a lump sum and by 1815 one third of landowners had taken this option. Worcestershire Land Tax Returns can give: Rental value of the owner’s property. Names of owners and copyholders. Names of occupiers. Names or description of property or estate. The amounts of tax levied. Those owners exonerated from paying the tax annually.
