The Drummond Presbyterian Church is a former church building in Bells Corners, a suburban community in College Ward in the city of Ottawa, Canada. The building was constructed in 1898 on the northern side of what is now known as Robertson Road, using stone from the demolished Union Church on Old Richmond Road. In 1925 it became the United Church and was used until 1962 when the new United Church was completed.
After 1962 the building was no longer used as a church gathering place. For a while, the building housed "The Spa", and presently PureLeaf Cannabis store. It is one of the oldest buildings in Bells Corners.
