Northern Ireland’s Attorney General John Larkin QC will give a lecture at Clough Non-Subscribing Meeting House in Co Down next week.

Mr Larkin will discuss the Dill v Watson, the 1836 legal case between two Presbyterian churches over the ownership of the Meeting House.

Rev David Steers, minister of Clough Non-Subscribing Church, invited Mr Larkin after hearing him speak in Trinity College Dublin.

He told the Belfast Telegraph: “I asked Mr Larkin if he would give the same lecture, possibly in my own church, and he readily agreed.

“I think he will use this opportunity to make the lecture more accessible to an audience containing a number of non-legal people, and that he will describe some of the more colourful figures in the case.”
