About
The Dromore Non-Subscribing Church Meeting House is a symmetrical classically-styled stucco building, built c.1799/1800 (completed 1801) and located to the west side of Rampart Street in Dromore town centre.
It has a lateral rectangular plan with full-height gabled projection to rear and a single-storey modern annexe to east. Its architectural design aligns with traditional Presbyterian meeting houses. The current building which has substantially kept it's original character features a central focus on a high pulpit along the long wall, with large galleries on the other three walls to maximize capacity for preaching. The box pews still retain their original character and pew numbering. The layout is characteristic of traditional preaching houses, emphasizing the importance of the sermon in Presbyterian worship. The central entrance bay is dominated by large Venetian window. Beautiful leaded-and-stained glass windows can be found to north and west elevations. One of the windows is a remembrance window in honour of the fallen from the two world wars. On either wise of the puplit are two large stain-glass windows dating back to the late 1800's, one depicting a child's guardian angel and the Jesus as The Good Shepherd, and the other depicting the Parable of the Sower together with Jesus inviting the children to come to him. The Meeting House is surrounded to all sides by graveyard with earliest headstone dating from 1840.
