The Tagg was pulled down circa 1985. A photograph taken shortly before its demolition shows it to be a two-story brick house with pitched roof and two chimneys. It was left derelict in its final years and has been replaced by a group of modern homes at the corner of Tag Lane and Tanterton Hall Lane in Cottam. There is a nearby street, Cottam Hall Lane, which is a paved over former footpath to the old Haydock ancestral home, Cottam Hall. The name "Tagg House" still appears on a nearby electrical switching station.
