Families associated with the property
- Riou: Frank Riou was living at 3 Millbrook Cottages when he made his will, dated 15 December 1898
- Le Gros: There must have been a fourth cottage closer to what is now Victoria Avenue because in 1913 Philip John Le Gros, son of Philippe, sold 'a house and shop called 4 Millbrook Cottages', to the Parish of St Lawrence, represented by Constable Edward Voisin, and Procureurs du Bien Public John Coutanche and Helier John Langlois, for £400. The cottage was presumably demolished for road widening
