Loughgall Presbyterian Church known locally as Cloveneden, is situated on an elevated and prominent site just off the Cloveneden Road, over 1 mile from the village of Loughgall. The Church date-stone records the year 1704 and it is believed that the Church became independent from Vinecash Presbyterian Church when the Minister for the district, Rev. Alexander Bruce, died in April 1704. W. R. Rodgers (1909 - 1969), probably best known as a poet, was ordained as a Presbyterian minister in 1935 and was first appointed to Cloveneden Church, Loughgall, where he was minister for 12 years. He later gave up the ministry and became a BBC radio producer and scriptwriter. He died in California in 1969 and was buried in Loughgall.
