The old cottage must have been here before the adjacent cloth mill, now a heritage centre, was established in 1837. It stands on the Clough River, which flows into the River Rawthey a short distance downstream. The Rawthey is itself a tributary of the River Lune.

This area of the historic West Riding (Garsdale) was transferred to the administration of Cumbria in 1974 but remains within the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
