Elmwood Hall

Elmwood Hall ist eine vormalige Presbyterianische Kirche in der University Road in Belfast (Nordirland),[1] gegenüber der Queen's University Belfast gelegen. Die Kirche wurde in den Jahren 1860−1862 errichtet und vereint verschiedene Baustile, repräsentiert jedoch zum überwiegenden Teil jedoch den italianisierten Stil mit einer Spitze auf dem Glockenturm, wie sie für diesen Stil an sakralen Bauten typisch ist.[1]

Der Bau geht auf einen Entwurf von John Corry zurück, der Turm selber wurde jedoch erst 1872 fertiggestellt. Die ursprüngliche Kanzel und der Großteil der inneren Einrichtung sind inzwischen jedoch ebenso wie die Buntglasfenster entfernt worden. [2] Das Gebäude ist in Kategorie A (Grade A) der Statutory List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest gelistet und steht unter Denkmalschutz.

Heute wird das Gebäude als Spielstätte des Ulster Orchestra genutzt.
