The town council manage the Gill public conveniences. There is a car park operated by SLDC adjacent to the toilet block.

The postcode is LA12 7BN . The newly (2021) refurbished conveniences have 3 toilet units with  a swipe payment facility on all three, together with a coin system on the disabled convenience.  The cost is 30p per use.

The toilets cost circa 8,000 per year to clean, maintain, repair and insure, together with water and electricity bills, plus rates. Local conveniences are  currently not exempt from business rates. The cost is high which is why the council has to make a charge to ensure that it remain open.

The Gill is the start of the Cumbria Way – a  long distance walk from Ulverston to Carlisle.  The Cumbria Waymarker on the Gill marks the start of the walk.
