3 Harker's Hill, Cornascriebe Road, Portadown, BT62 3SS

Small, single-storey vernacular house, with lime washed brick frontage and double-pitched slated roof, one of a short canted row of four similar but non-identical dwellings, all of which appear to be largely of 1871. The row, which may have been constructed to house workers employed in a small local mill, is set at the end of a short country lane and shares a communal ‘yard’ with a contemporary -and generally similar- pair of ‘semi-detached’ dwellings to the north [HB15/04/027/E & F]. The lane leading to the houses is located to the east of Cornascriebe Road, roughly 1.4km west of Laurelvale, 3.8km west of Tandragee. This house is to the east of centre in the block of four. It is roughly square in plan, but with a small single-storey extension to the rear (south). The front (north) wall is constructed in clay brick that has been finished with lime wash and has a painted plinth. The rear wall and those of the extension are finished with lined cement render. The roof is double pitched, covered with natural slate and has a small fixed skylight to the south side. Eaves are clipped without overhangs and rainwater goods have been replaced in uPVC. Chimneystacks rise on either side of the ridgeline; these are constructed in brick, rendered, and have corbelled caps. The extension has a single-pitch roof covered in corrugated-iron. The front façade is asymmetrical. To the left there is a flat-headed door opening with a plain timber sheeted door. To the right are two flat-headed window openings each with a 2/2 timber sash frame; window sills are painted stone. To either side of the rear (south) façade there is a flat-headed window opening (on either side of the extension); that to the right has a 1/1 sash frame while that to the left has a 6/6 timber sash frame. The west and south facades of the extension are blank while the east façade has a timber-sheeted door with a margined sidelight.
