The White House
Description
Nestled on the northern shore of Belfast Lough for the last 400 years, The White House tells the story of the Williamite and Jacobite Wars.
After falling into disrepair in the 1800s the building was later used as a gospel hall until 1997. At this point it was purchased on behalf of Abbey Historical Society by Ulster Garden Villages and in 2000, the White House Preservation Trust was formed to preserve and restore the building.
The Trust worked tirelessly to attract funding, and as a result The White House has been transformed into a beautiful and informative visitor centre. Through a range of colourful displays including artefacts, images and interactives, you can explore both the past and present of this unique historical site.
Tours are available for groups. All tours must be booked in advance.
