Description Incorrect Description? Tell Us!Drumcree Church is the parish church of Drumcree, a rural Church of Ireland parish to the north of Portadown in County Armagh, Northern Ireland. In recent times it has become noted for the Orange Order service held annually on the Sunday before 12 July. The service, or more precisely the Orangemen's march both to and from the service, has been the catalyst for sectarian unrest between the Protestant marchers and the Catholic residents of the area.

The present church, known as The Church of the Ascension, was consecrated by the Bishop of Down and Dromore and Connor, Robert Brent Knox, on 28 October 1856. Its foundation stone was laid on 17 May 1855, which in that year was Ascension Day.
