11 Church Street, Dromore, Co Tyrone, BT78 3DX

An attached mid-terrace two-bay two-and-a-half-storey house built around 1830, located on the north side of Church Street in Dromore. While it retains some original features, alterations to the ground floor to accommodate commercial use have compromised its character. It is of a common type and not among the best examples, and is not of special architectural or historic interest.

The building is square-on-plan with a two-storey return to the north. The pitched roof is covered in natural slate with blue and black clay ridge tiles over corbelled brick eaves; a brick chimney rises to the party wall at the east. Walls are faced with ruled-and-lined render, with rough render to the rear. Windows are timber-framed sliding sash with painted masonry sills.

The principal elevation faces south. The ground floor shopfront consists of a large window at the left and a replacement timber-panelled door at the right. The first floor has two 2/2 sash windows, and the attic storey two 1/1 sash windows without sills. The west gable is abutted by no. 13 Church Street. The north elevation is abutted by the return; the exposed section at attic level shows exposed rubble and contains two 2/2 windows. The return has a lean-to roof; a replacement square-headed timber door at the left is flanked by a 1/1 window at the left and a now-blocked window opening at the right; to the right, both door and window opening are blocked. The first floor of the return has two 3/3 windows. The east gable is abutted by no. 9 Church Street.

The building is directly accessed from the street at the south. At the rear is an enclosed shared yard containing single-storey garages, with remains of rubble boundary walls to the left and right of the return. Rainwater goods are cast-iron or uPVC.

The building appears on the first edition Ordnance Survey map of 1833, though these early maps do not clearly identify the current structure. The Townland Valuation (1828–40) similarly does not allow clear identification and the building may form part of a plot described as "seven houses" exempted from valuation. The building is first clearly identifiable in Griffith's Valuation and map, where it is recorded as occupied by Charles McGuigan and leased from Joseph Stewart at a value of £6. Occupiers changed frequently until the property passed to the Hughes family in 1910. In 1934 the lessor became Lord Rathdowell and the value increased to £9 10 shillings. At that time it comprised a shop, kitchen, scullery, small room and reception, with three bedrooms on the first floor and two rooms on the second floor. A 1939 valuation describes it as a "Small butcher's shop with sausage room (small petrol engine) behind…Yard with…buildings in poor repair containing byre, pigsty and slaughter house."
