Description

A two-storey farmhouse dating to around 1840–50, built in the Georgian vernacular style, with a single-storey return wing that is probably an earlier dwelling. The property sits on the south side of a quiet country road, roughly one mile west of Craigavon. The house is L-shaped in plan, with the main gabled front block facing west and outbuildings to the east and north-east, with spacious garden to the west.

The western front face of the main block follows a typical three-openings-wide Georgian arrangement. At the centre of the ground floor is the main entrance, comprising a panelled timber door with three-quarter-length sidelights bearing decorative tracery. Above the door and sidelights is a large elliptical-arched fanlight with spoke tracery. A single concrete step leads to the door. To the left of the entrance is a flat-arched window opening with painted stone cill and painted smooth render surround, containing a replacement top-hung timber window frame made to resemble a 6/6 Georgian-paned sash. An identical window stands to the right of the entrance, with three further windows to the first floor. The north gable has one window on each floor, positioned to the left, matching the front style. The south gable has no openings.

The single-storey return abuts the right-hand (north) half of the rear face of the main block. To the left of this junction is a single window on each floor, both matching the front style, though the upper-floor window lacks any surround. Close to the intersection is a very small opening, almost a ventilator rather than a window, on the ground floor. The north face of the return contains a small lean-to porch at the centre-left (now the de facto entrance), with a modern partly glazed timber door. To the left of the porch is a window with concrete cill and replacement uPVC frame. To the right is a similar-sized window with concrete cill and a replacement timber frame with casement and top-hung openers. The south face of the return has a very small low-level window to the left with concrete cill and a recent top-hung timber frame, and a larger window to the right matching the style of the north face. The east-facing gable of the return supports a large single-storey lean-to. The south side of this lean-to has a small porch with a small modern timber-framed window to its right. The north face of the lean-to has a small timber-framed window with top-hung opener to the left and a timber-sheeted doorway to the right.

Most of the façade is finished in roughcast and whitewashed. The south gable of the main block and the gable of the return are clad in unpainted cement render, while the lean-to is finished in unpainted roughcast. The roof of the main block is covered in man-made tiles, with similar tiles on the south side of the return roof and natural slate on the north. The main block has a rendered chimneystack at each gable, and the return has a brick stack at the ridge. Rainwater goods are a mixture of cast-iron and uPVC.

The outbuildings comprise a small group of single and two-storey gabled structures, mostly finished in render and brick, with portions in rubble and breeze block. Roofs are either slated or covered in corrugated iron or corrugated asbestos. These buildings have undergone extensive alteration over the years, evidenced by numerous large flat-arch doorways with sliding doors and windows (some possibly enlarged) with modern frames.
