Summary edit

Description
English: The Dromore ploughman. The new statue will be a feature of the dramatic glen which provides a scenic entrance to Dromore from the south west. On the escarpment above stand the proud remains of a church. This building was already old when the Plantation of Ulster maps showed it here in 1609. Repaired and taken over for Anglican use in the 1690s, Dromore Church was used until its abandonment in 1846. It retains a certain nobility even in its ruined state and more than one gullible traveller has been misled by local wits into taking it to be the fabled `Castle of Dromore' of the haunting ballad. (The castle of that song is actually in County Cork.)
