Phil's Phil's  

Sergeant's is one of the four boarding houses in the Commoner Block of 6.5 acres purchased in the 1860s by Headmaster Ridding (1867-1884), known as the School's Second Founder. A purpose built boarding house completed in 1869 known initially as Culver Lea, it sits on Romans Road facing Kingsgate Park.

Founded by The Revd E.W. Sergeant, the first Housemaster (1869-1882), it is formally known as Sergeant's but informally as Phil's after the second Housemaster C.B. Phillips (1883-1895). It accommodates 60 boys in a house that features its own games room with table football and snooker tables.

David Yeomans has been Housemaster of Phil's since September 2007. Before coming to Winchester he was Head of Design Technology at Windlesham House. He is married to Charlotte.
