Description
The site represents the location of a former single-story vernacular farmhouse, constructed around 1832 and demolished circa 1990, with a larger modern dwelling now occupying the general site. The property was situated at the end of a farm lane to the east of Killinchy Road, approximately two miles south of Comber.
The original farmhouse, as described in a 1974 survey, was a single-story cottage with a slated roof in two sections and gable ends. It had brick chimneys and rough cast walls, whitewashed externally. The southwest-facing front had three drop-hung windows with Georgian panes, a doorway between the second and third windows, a panelled door, and a plain fanlight. The condition was noted as ‘poorish,’ with a front width of approximately 52 feet. Extensions and outbuildings were present at the rear. An inscription stone to the front reads "Built by H. Lowry 1832." All outbuildings have since been demolished along with the main house.
The 1834 Ordnance Survey map depicts a building matching the farmhouse’s plan, and valuation records from the same year identify the property as belonging to a Hamilton Lowry—likely the “H. Lowry” referenced in the inscription. This complex included a house, return, office, and house, with a combined rateable value of £4-13-6. The property was leased by Lowry from Reverend Mark Cassidy, the then curate of St. Marks Newtownards and proprietor of Ballykeel townland.
