Drumcar (Irish: Droim Chora, meaning 'ridge of the weir')[1][2] is a village and a historical parish, in the barony of Ardee in County Louth, Ireland.

Drumcar is 1.5 miles (2.4 km) northeast of Dunleer, on the River Glyde, and near the high road from Dublin to Belfast.

The Protestant parishioners attended the church at Dunleer, but religious service was also performed every Sunday evening by the curate in the school room at Drumcar.

[4] In Louth, dedications to Irish saints were common, such as Ultan at Killany, Edan at Clonken, and Fintan at Drumcar.

The architectural style follows the High Anglicanism design of John Henry Newman's Littlemore church.

[9] Its features include a small four-bay lancet hall, buttresses, a bellcote over the west gable, a south porch, and limestone [dressings.

In 1868, the choir section was extended and the chancel, with a triple-light east window, was added by Slater & Carpenter.

Built in 1777, it is situated in an extensive and richly wooded demesne, commanding a view of the Carlingford and Mourne mountains and the sea.

[2] In his Topographical Dictionary of Ireland, published in 1837, Samuel Lewis records that a local school was supported by Mr. and Lady McClintock who paid a master for teaching more than 100 children and other expenses, amounting to £50 per annum as of 1837.
