Bell Cottage , Rockingham, Victorian Georgian cottage ruin in East Rockingham, Australia

The limestone ruins of Bell Cottage stand along Mandurah Road, featuring remnants of masonry walls, a corrugated iron roof, and three peppercorn trees.

James Bell constructed this cottage in 1868 after purchasing 20 acres of land, establishing one of the earliest settlements in the Rockingham region.

The Bell family contributed to regional development through James's work as a boat builder and his involvement in establishing the first local school.

The site remains fenced and inaccessible to visitors, with substantial vegetation obscuring views of the historical structure from public areas.

Archaeological investigations at Bell Cottage reveal information about domestic life during Western Australia's early settlement period through preserved structural elements.
