I like that description of the gate's romantic origins (from the DiscoverIreland link above) -
Dromana Gate is a Hindu Gothic gate dating from around 1830, 5km south of Cappoquin in County Waterford. The only one of its kind in Ireland. The gate was originally built from wood and papier-mâché to greet the owner of the Dromana Estate, Henry Villiers-Stuart and his wife, Theresia Pauline Ott of Vienna, on returning from their honeymoon in 1826. The couple were so enchanted with the gate it was reconstructed in stone in later years.
Ed. The archiseek version is better ! -

Now the First Presbyterian Church Dromore (Non Subscribing) Streetview According to the church's history page, In 1876, during the ministry of the Rev. Robert Millar the present manse was built at a cost of over £1,300. Shortly after 1880 the schoolroom was erected within the church grounds. The DIA has a reference to plans in 1874, but says unexecuted.

About the church, wikipedia says Whilst it continues, for historic reasons, friendly relations with the Unitarian and Free Christian General Assembly, it does not share the latter's 'post-Christian' outlook and remains firmly part of the Christian family of faith.

Via Trove from 1900, in the middle of irrelevant local news ... "A Unitarian minister was being ordained at Dromore, County Down, and at the public luncheon after the ceremony a distinguished Roman Catholic cleric not only attended but spoke. The Rev. Monsignor McCartan, the gentleman in question, lamented, in the course of his address, the death of the late Unitarian minister, as "a saintly pastor who was a favorite minister of the Lord." Speaking of the kindly relations which existed between "the Unitarians and my people," he said: "We are all made by the same hand of God. Therefore, how can anyone say, 'I love God,' and at the same time hate his neighbor ?" ... See - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/90563234?searchTerm=dr...
