Born in Henfield, previously a teacher and banker, he worked extensively in Brighton during the Regency and Georgian era, frequently with Amon Henry Wilds, including collaboration on the design of The Level. He became a leading botanist and horticulturist in the early 19th century. He proposed a giant botanical glasshouse structure, the Anthaeum, that was constructed at the northern end of Wilds' Oriental Place, where Palmeira Square now stands. The collapse of the massive domed conservatory on the day before its official opening in 1822 caused such a shock that Philips went blind.
