Drumcork Farm

Drumcork Farm is a substantial 2-storey farmhouse designed by architect William Burn, built around 1834. The farmhouse is situated on a brow, with a service wing positioned on the slope at the rear, opening into a courtyard at the basement level. The building has an asymmetrical design, featuring advanced and recessed gabled bays on the main elevations.

On the southeast elevation, there is a canted ground floor window in a wide inner gabled bay, along with a gabled porch connected to the central bay on the left. This porch includes a wide basket-arched opening, a boarded door with sidelights, and a fanlight. To the right, in the re-entrant angle, there is a full-height gabled square bay, with an additional door alongside it. Nearby, there is a square privy above steps leading to the courtyard, which has a shallow pyramidal roof with projecting eaves.

The courtyard elevation consists of three stepped units: a tall gable of the house on the left, a 3-bay inner service wing with a central door, and a cartshed on the right featuring a segmental-arched opening. The building has straight or saw-toothed skews, wallhead and axial stacks, and is roofed with graded slates.
