Add PhotosBallylintagh Presbyterian Church was built in 1812 when some of the Crossgar Presbyterian congregation quarrelled with their minister and left to form a new church.
In 1841, the Ballylintagh congregartion decided to adhere to the United Original Secession Church and in 1843 appointed the Reverend William Mathews. In 1852 the Reverend Mathews and a minority of the congregation joined the Free Church of Scotland against the wishes of the majority, but the landowners, the Worshipful Company of Ironmongers, gave the key to the church to the Reverend Mathews.
In 1857, the majority built a new Seceder church at Dromore. In 1863, Ballylintagh was received into the General Assembly. Its congregation dwindled and the church became neglected, was sold to the Aghadowey Creamery in 1905, and demolished about 1912.
