The cottage was first built in 1927 as a gardener’s cottage. In 1936, Bertha Mather replaced it with a guest house, built on the former building’s foundation. According to Jane Nickerson, Bertha’s daughter, the guest house was occupied by various family members whose stays varied in duration from short-term to long-term.
