"The building range known as Sawmill Cottages, which includes a two storey house at the east end of a row of three cottages, is excluded from the scheduling, although the ground beneath it and the flue which exits the building through the south wall are included. The 1805 plan of Blagill Mill shows this range of buildings to be the reducing and refining house. Across the trackway to the west of the cottage conversions there is another range of buildings, mostly surviving as wall footings with the easternmost single storey lean-to building still roofed and used as a garage. This building range is considered to have comprised ancillary buildings (such as store-rooms and workshops) and will retain buried deposits that will allow the identification of their functions." https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1018211?section=official-list-entry Allen Valleys Local History Group have a photo of these buildings taken in 1905: http://www.allenvalleyslocalhistory.org.uk/photo/langley-1905-0025-014/ https://web.archive.org/web/20220917110225/http://www.allenvalleyslocalhistory.org.uk/photo/langley-1905-0025-014/
