Ellergill Cottage

Ellergill Cottage, dated 1820, was originally three cottages but is now two. Located on Bentham Main Street in Low Bentham, it features watershot masonry with painted stone dressings and a stone slate roof on No 1, while No 2 has a Welsh slate roof. The building is two storeys high with three bays. No 1 has a left-hand entrance with a plain surround and a door from the 1950s. It has one window on each storey, each with plain surrounds, projecting sills, and six-pane sashes. No 2 originally had a central pair of entrances with plain surrounds; the left-hand entrance is now blocked, and the right-hand entrance has a four-panel door with the upper half glazed. No 2 also has two windows per storey, similar to those in No 1. Above the entrance, there is a painted oval plaque inscribed "J & E DAVISON" and dated. The building features wooden eaves modillions, gable end ridge stacks, and a ridge stack at the junction of Nos 1 and 2.
