Description At the time of Griffiths Valuation n the 1850s, Samuel Rankin was leasing this property from the Lord Bishop of Derry’s estate when it was valued at £15. By 1906 it had the same valuation but was in the ownership of John C. McClintock. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was built by the Cary family but passed to the Rankins through marriage. It is still extant, surrounded by modern housing development.
