The House moved to its current site in 1882. The building was purpose-built and paid for by the Housemaster at the time, W G Michell, who sold it to the School on his retirement. Notable old boys include Dick Seaman, winner of the 1936 German Grand Prix, Robert Hardy and AN Wilson.
Michell House is built around a quad used by all years for various games throughout the year. Each year group has its own common room; there are snooker and table football rooms, a table tennis table and a piano practice room, available to all the boys.
