Corker Hill is a historic home and farm complex located at Greene Township in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. The manor house was built between 1810 and 1820, and is a two-story, seven bay, brick dwelling on a limestone foundation in the Federal style. The facade was modified about 1905, to add Colonial Revival style elements, such as a cupola and wraparound porch. Also on the property are the contributing large stone and frame Pennsylvania bank barn, stone vaulted root cellar, frame shed / chicken coop, frame carriage house / garage, small stone furnace building, wagon shed / corn crib, and frame tenant house (c. 1870).[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1]
