Site of house, Carbet Road, Tamnaficarbet, Portadown, Craigavon, Co Armagh

Site, on the north side of Carbet Road roughly two miles NW of Portadown, formerly occupied by a part single, part two-storey vernacular house of mainly pre 1835 construction, demolished post 1974. The first survey report of July 1974 reads: ‘Single and two-storey farmhouse. Roof slated, gable ends. Chimneys rendered. Walls rendered and whitewashed, brick base. Single-storey section on left hand [side] has 3 drop-hung [i.e. sash] windows, no astragals [but] narrow blue painted raised surround. Projecting porch [with] slated shed roof [and] sheeted door [with] plain narrow fanlight and decorative transom. Two-storey section on right hand [side] has on first floor a drop-hung window as before and two small sheeted window openings. Ground floor has a window as above and sheeted door below window opening above. Condition fair. South front about 65ft. Adjacent farm outbuildings’. Nothing remains of the house or any of the outbuildings save the vehicle gateway to the roadside, which has rendered pyramidal capped piers and wrought-iron gates.
