The Doctor's cottage

After the Third Doctor was exiled on Earth, he came to own a cottage. While the Third Doctor had many homes during this exile, the cottage was the oldest of them. (PROSE: Verdigris) The cottage was the Third Doctor's mailing address. (COMIC: Deadly Choice, Fogbound)
The Doctor continued to visit the cottage in his later incarnations. (COMIC: The Dalek Revenge, The Pictures of Josephine Day, A Matter of Life and Death)
The cottage was located in Wales. (COMIC: The Pictures of Josephine Day) It was thirty miles from Thisis (PROSE: Verdigris) and "many miles" from Tadcaster. (COMIC: Fogbound) One account indicated it was in a village. (COMIC: The Pictures of Josephine Day)
== History ==
=== Use by the Third Doctor ===
Shortly after he defeated the Vogans, the Third Doctor decided to have a short holiday by renting a cottage in the country. The Doctor's holiday was short-lived, as just one day after it began a police officer came to the cottage and escorted the Doctor to the Prime Minister. (COMIC: The Celluloid Midas) While the Doctor finished his holiday in 1863, (COMIC: Backtime) he continued to use the cottage. (COMIC: Zeron Invasion et al)
In 1972, the Doctor was contacted by the Ministry of Defence at the cottage, asking for help at Haylock-on-sea. (PROSE: Countdown to TV Action)
The Doctor was sleeping in the cottage when he was attacked by a Zeron psychic attack aimed at the human race. He left the cottage in the TARDIS to fight the invaders. (COMIC: Zeron Invasion)

In May 1973, the Doctor invited Jo Grant to a week-long holiday at the cottage. Iris Wildthyme and Tom interrupted this holiday and got the Doctor and Jo involved in an adventure involving the Meercocks and Verdigris.
