Description
This is a former Methodist church built between 1860 and 1879, located on Ormeau Road in Belfast, within the Malone Lower townland. The building is currently in use as an office. It was initially surveyed during the First Survey, but was not listed. A partial survey was also undertaken during the Second Survey, though it was deemed not of sufficient interest to warrant a full assessment. The building has undergone significant alteration, including replacement timber windows, large extensions to both the side and rear, the addition of suspended ceilings, and a modern staircase visible through the windows. It is not listed.
