"Beechlawn", Hillsborough
This building (previously seen Image in November 2005) was built as the rectory for St Malachi’s parish church Image of 1772. The construction of the church was the gift of Wills Hill the then Earl of Hillsborough. He hoped (in vain as matters turned out) that the church would eventually become a cathedral. The rectory, on the Dromore Road, is in a style befitting the residence of a bishop. It was extended after construction but there does not seem to be any indication of its original size except that it was recorded as having three storeys.
I have not been able to discover the date of construction of the original house or the later extension but the former might be supposed to be approximately contemporary with that of the church. The 1830’s OS map shows a “Glebe House” in wooded grounds on the site.

See Image The row of cottages at the Dromore Road end of Park Street. I can’t find any reference to them on the Register of Listed Buildings - something which must make them close to unique in Hillsborough.
