Historical Note New Cross House is understood to have originally been constructed in South Petherton and was rebuilt on its present site on the instructions of Lord Portman who owned New Cross Estate and wanted a substantial house for the steward of his model farm. The Estate had many tenants including a Mr Parsons, protégé of Lord Portman, celebrated farm and inventor of agricultural machinery. The Hebditch’s arrived in 1895 as tenants and subsequently bought the Estate from Lord Portman and the house is still in the ownership of the family and has never been sold since then.
