Portico, formerly Portaferry Presbyterian Church, is an outstanding Grade A listed, double-fronted, neoclassical temple dating from 1841. Designed by John Millar, it is widely regarded to be one of the best examples of Greek Revival architecture in Great Britain and Ireland. After a £1.6m restoration in 2015 it functions primarily as an Arts and Heritage Centre but still serves as the local Presbyterian church. There are both permanent and visiting exhibitions on the history of the Upper Ards and of church music whilst in the organ loft there is an exhibition on the evolution of the organ and on the current, remarkable instrument. Visitors will be able to view these exhibitions and can join guided tours at 14.00 and 15.00.
