Description

Site of a former rectory located on a rise to the north of St Patrick's Church of Ireland church, north of Glenshesk Road, less than a mile east of Armoy in County Antrim.

The rectory was built in 1807 at a cost of £376 10 shillings and 4 pence, according to Samuel Lewis's Topographical Dictionary of 1837. It appears on the Ordnance Survey map of 1832.

At the time of a survey in October 1972, before its demolition, the building was described as a two-storey, three-bay roughcast house with a slated roof and chimneys to either gable. The centre bay projected forward to form a porch with a carved bargeboard. The windows were unrecessed and Georgian-paned, with 12 panes on the ground floor and 9 panes above. The house had a modern extension and harled and whitened outbuildings at the rear.

According to the valuation of November 1834, the main portion of the house measured 40½ feet by 20 feet by 16 feet in height, with a porch of 9 by 7 by 16 feet, an addition in the rear of 15 by 19 by 16 feet, and a kitchen shed room of 14½ by 18½ by 15½ feet. The outbuildings comprised two and single-storey coach houses, a stable, barn and byre, and a single-storey dairy. Similar dimensions are recorded in the second valuation of 1859, by which date further outbuildings had been added to the site. A long, two-storey, rubble-built gabled outbuilding survived to the northeast of the main building.

The rectory fell into disrepair during the 1970s and was demolished around 1977. A new rectory was subsequently built on the site.
