The former Macrory Memorial Presbyterian church, in Duncairn Gardens, opposite Edlingham Street. It seems to date from 1896 when it replaced one in Gt George’s Street. Currently vacant and with a “to let” sign. My understanding is that an application for planning permission Z/2008/1584/F Construction of a 3-storey building comprising 12no. 2 bedroom apartments with access from both Duncairn Gardens & Hillman Street [amended scheme]” was not approved. Not listed and not on the “at risk” register. Note added 25 November 2011 - there is an application for planning permission, listed under the streamlined procedure, as follows: “Z/2011/1280/F Macrory Memorial Presbyterian Church Duncairn Gardens Belfast BT15 2GN Change of use from church building to 2no hot food takeaways with alterations to front elevation”.
