Charles Appleton lived here for several years. His biographer Archibald Henry Sayce described Netley Cottage as "the pretty artistic home where it was his pride and pleasure to bring together gradually the goodly collection of books, engravings, china, old furniture...".[5][6] Robert Louis Stevenson and Sidney Colvin frequented the house when Appleton was resident.[1][7]
The solicitor Percy Edward Marshall, founder of the law firm Hensman & Marshall and Director of the Law Association, lived here for several decades.[8]
