Farm Building, Summerhill, Newtownbutler, Co. Fermanagh, BT92 6LZ

This is a symmetrical farm outbuilding, likely dating from between 1800 and 1819, situated to the east of Summerhill House (listed separately as HB12/01/030A) within a maturely planted farmyard. The building is oriented roughly north-south.

The outbuilding is three bays wide, with a prominent gabled section centrally placed. It is one-and-a-half storeys high on the west-facing front elevation, but the rear east-facing elevation rises to accommodate an additional storey. The walls are constructed of lime-rendered rubble stone with carefully dressed stone around the openings and a stone stringcourse at the eaves level of the central gabled bay. The left and right bays are identical, each featuring a central door opening flanked by a window. The door in the right bay is a "t+g" barn door and a timber side-hung casement window with a stone sill is positioned on either side. The projecting central bay has a large, two-stage semicircular-headed carriage opening, constructed with stone “vouissoirs” and a stepped reveal. Above the carriage opening is a large loading door opening with a stone reveal, stone cill, and timber lintel, flanked by blank cheeks. The left gable is blank.

The rear elevation has a semicircular-headed opening with brick dressings on the ground floor of each bay. On the first floor, the left bay has a loading door opening; the central bay has two window openings—the right having a 6/6 sliding sash window and the left being smaller and situated at a higher level. The right bay has an infilled window opening. A small window opening is located at attic level on the left bay; the other bays are blank. The right gable has a ground floor opening at its centre.

The building is shown on the 1834 Ordnance Survey (OS) 6-inch map and is associated with ‘Summer Hill’.
