Ballywalter Presbyterian Church

Ballywalter Presbyterian Church

Following a split in the congregation in the 18th Century there were two Presbyterian churches in Ballywalter:

First Ballywalter Presbyterian Church

Second Ballywalter Presbyterian Church

The two churches reunited in 1925 and the disused church (located on the Greyabbey Road) is now used as a store.
