Charles Lamb, "Elia", 1775 - 1834, essayist, lived here.
Charles Lamb lived with his sister at Colebrooke Cottage from 1823 - 1827. Of this home he wrote "a cheerful dining room is studded all over and rough with old books. I feel like a great lord, having never had a house before" and "a white house with six good rooms, the New River runs close to the foot of the house".

At the time the house was known as Colebrooke Cottage in Colebrooke Row.
