The church closed its doors in 2010 after 173 years of service. The red brick vestry next door was built in 1928. The two are located next to the peace wall separating them from the Catholic Short Strand area. During The Troubles, the congregation had to pass through a BA check-point to get to the church. http://www.newsletter.co.uk/news/regional/historic-church-holds-final-service-1-1849444
