The houses on what is now Lower Oldfield Park are listed in Bath directories from 1882 – the address at the time was just "Oldfield Park" and covered what is now both Upper and Lower Oldfield Park. These large Victorian villas were originally named rather than numbered, with examples being Carisbrook Villas, Drakeloe, Dawlish Villas, Starcross Villas and Queen Villas.
This property was named as Harben Villa and the first owner was Samuel Williams Jenkin, a superintendent of agents for the Prudential Assurance Company. The name of the villa is no coincidence given the first owners profession - Sir Henry Harben was a British pioneer of industrial life assurance who became the accountant then the resident director of the Prudential in 1852 and 1873 respectively and remained connected to the company for over sixty years.
