By 1844, it was The Bird's Nest social cottage, and, in 1864 became The Oxford. Shortly afterwards, called Oxford House, it was the privy residence of Thomas Henry Reynolds who wrote hymns, edited a hymn book, and was financially involved in the Burford brewery and several local utilities. He renamed the cottage High View, and this name remained when, c1930, it was once more converted to trade as The High View Private Hotel. Later, the liberally-minded Sharpe family, conservationists, musicians and naturists, operated The High View as a bed & breakfast establishment with a caravan spot attached. Their work continued till the 1960s, after which it was prominent for a whilst as The Winter's Tale. Since then, the structure features been one of the properties in the estate of a national brewery.
